Anna's Musings


UPDATE (29th August): Got through yesterday's sudden episode where my heart was beating at 200bpm for 45 mins or so before the emergency medication kicked in with its own side-effects too, leaving me totally drained for the rest of the day! Today I'm playing catch-up, but feeling far more "normal", if still quite tired.

I did manage to get on here yesterday afternoon just long enough to upload my interview article of Kchan27 so if you haven't already read it, do take a look - her work is really lovely!

I'd like to say a very grateful thanks to everyone who has held me in their thoughts and prayers, and kept me going with so many :+fav:'s and lovely messages and notes.

GROUP :hug:

*~*~*~*~*~*


EDIT (28th August): I'M UNWELL WITH HEART PROBLEMS TODAY and so I'm having to put everything I had planned on hold for now. I'll get through it, just need to rest and do nothing until things have stabilised.



*~*~*~*~*~*



I have family down with me at the moment, and also, just might be going away for a week or two at the end of this week (depending on various things coming together). This means my time will be a little more limited here for a while, but I'll still do some things. I'm afraid that also includes faving and running (like so many of us who are busy)! I'm sure people will understand though, and please, unless there's a real need to make a response to anything in particular, don't feel obliged to thank me or anything.

As always, if there's anything in particular I need to see, please NOTE me! I don't always get time to look at any of the messages directly under my journal on my main page, although I eventually do go there! Thanks!





Gifts From People Who Have Thought Of Me


It makes me feel so special when people give me pressies, so I will always display them in this section of my journal.




Her Secret Garden by Iardacil

(31st August 2007) I feel moved to tears at the generosity and thoughtfulness of my friend Khadri :iconiardacil: for having created such a beautiful, highly symbollic image, dedicated to me! Words fail me... Thank you So, So much! :hug: You could never have known just how much this would mean to me in so many ways!


:thumb63467230:

What a lovely surprise this afternoon (29th August) to find this lovely image dedicated to me by :iconxract:! Thank you so much for your wonderfully kind thoughts and consideration! I feel very blessed! :)

A Journal Dedicated to Me

by :iconleonalegria: 24th August 2007.

What an amazing and happy surprise this was! Thank you so much Leon! :hug:

Fall Is Coming... by anubis

A wonderful gift given today (10th August) by :iconanubis: to myself and several other people! How very beautiful and skillfully created this is! Thank you so much Tassos! :hug:

Kindred Spirits by EmberRoseArt

This beautiful picture created by :iconemberroseart: was dedicated to all cat-lovers, and I am most definitely one of those! I told her, and she has said that I am therefore included in her dedication. Such a lovely, touching picture!! Thank you so much for sharing it! :)


Rose by shaun-rules-4eva

What an honor to find this beautiful fractal made by :iconshaun-rules-4eva: gifted to myself, :iconphoenix75:, :iconlisarenee60046: and :iconinfiniteiterations: today (15th June)! It's so beautiful, and my grateful thanks to you, my friend for thinking of me in this way! :hug:

:thumb57134895:

WOW! I really do feel special today, having been gifted this absolutely beautiful Apo-flower by someone who has become a really lovely friend :iconphoenix75:! Thank you so much dear Kim! I'm smiling, and I've had a lovely day today too! This is like the cream on the cake! :)


Someone can gave me some peace by miss-angelicfairy

This beautiful picture, although it was not a gift directly to me, was made by :iconmiss-angelicfairy: for all her watchers and friends - I am one of her watchers, and so I feel I want to do her justice by displaying it. Thank you very much for being so thoughtful and producing such a worthwile piece of artwork (one of many) for us!


Thanks Anna by Xantipa2

How thrilling to be gifted this excellent fractal-artwork by my friend :iconxantipa2: today, (6th June)! Thank you so much - I so appreciate it! And it's always a huge pleasure to feature your works too, so here's at least one that's here permanently now! :)


Wild Fruit by Lilyas

Ohh what a wonderfully heart-warming surprise this was when I logged in this morning (22nd May) to find this beautiful picture gifted to myself and to nellis-eketorp by :iconlilyas: Thank you so much Lily, my dear friend! This will always serve to pretty up my journal, and you are indeed one of my "bestest" friends here at dA!! :blowkiss:


girl

This lovely gift was made specially for me by my dear friend Silky :icon1footonthedawn: a little while back, but she was never able to upload it, so she sent it to me by email. Here it is - it will probably take a minute or two to get into full flow, so be patient. I love it and cherish the fact that she so kindly thought enough of me when I had so admired one of her other gif images to make this one for me!




Such an uplifting surprise awaited me just now (17th May) when I was gifted this beautiful fractal flower by my sweet friend :iconvulcania:! Thank you so much for such a lovely and reciprocal friendship! :hug: :heart:


Elegant Tri-fold by anjaleck

What another wonderful surprise to discover this beauty gifted to me by :iconanjaleck: today (10th May)!! Thank you sooo much, you made my day!! :hug:




This stunning piece of artwork, produced in Ultra Fractal by :iconvelvet--glove:, was gifted to people who had given encouragement and positive input here at dA (8th May). Chris has since told me to feel free to consider myself as one of these people, and so here it is in my journal for keeps! I'm so proud to be able to display it here, and thanks to Chris for such a thoughtful and lovely gift to myself and others here! :)


:thumb54851963:

I found this really beautiful poem today (8th May) written by :iconmea2005: and dedicated to myself and three other special people! What a beautiful piece of writing - thank you so much - I'm enjoying getting to know you so much more lately through your writings and our correspondence!


:thumb54797843:

I just found this (7th May) fashioned for me specially by my dear friend :iconfractalinda:! What an amazing surprise and how uplifting, just at a time when I need a boost! Thank you so much dear Linda! :hug:


Where Fairies Live

A BIG Thank you goes to Neesa :iconreverieimages: for gifting these wonderful backgrounds to me! I am looking forward to using them - they are beautifully created and of very high resolution!


After the Storm by FractalEyes

What a very touching surprise it was to log on this morning (29th April) and find this beautiful gift made for me by Cerenity :iconfractaleyes:!! Look deep within it in its enlarged view, and there is so much subtlety and beauty within it - things that for me, are very deeply spiritual and meaningful! Thank you my dear friend, so much, for thinking of me as you created it! :hug:

*~*~*~*~*~*

This picture below has become a permanent fixture in my journal, I like it so much!



It is the face detail of "My Prayer For You" created by :iconjunkbyjen:
Her radiance is like that of an angel, but also depicts for me how I'd like to see myself in a perfected state! The glory is wonderful and God-inspired, created by a beautiful, loving soul! (See next picture below!)


::My Prayer for You:: by JunkbyJen

This beautiful picture was given by :iconjunkbyjen:, saying "For all my friends out there who need an extra bit of love, thought and prayer in there tough times. Much love to you all." (27th April)
I felt very much in need of just that, and so have included it here. :hug:sss Jen, you're a lovely, gentle and thoughtful person!


Kitten by 1footonthedawn

What a sweet and generous gift to me from :icon1footonthedawn: (19th April) with her words to me that I need to hang on to so much too, "Be Strong"! Thank you so much my dear Silky - and you know how much I just love kitties too! :) :hug:


Blue Heaven Wallpaper by 1footonthedawn

I wonder how many journals have this lovely picture by :icon1footonthedawn: included in them!
Silky created it for all those in pain.
As you know, there's physical pain and emotional pain.
The pain for me has mainly been emotional - even mental where certain individuals have thrown mental cruelty my way, but I have also known a lot of physical pain, and on a daily basis suffer from migraines through which I toil and push to get anything done!
Thank you so much Silky - once again! :hug:


Spiral for AnnaKirsten by Xantipa2

OMGosh! I found this one today (16th April), dedicated to me by :iconxantipa2: because she wanted to thank me for being so encouraging to her - but then I just so enjoy her wonderful fractal and abstract artworks! :hug:sss to you my friend!


:thumb53216088:

Ohh how lovely! I just received this new one today (15th April) from :iconfractaleuphoria: It's so precious, and so are you dear Hanne!

:thumb48218085:

This was made by my special friend, :iconfractalinda: for my birthday earlier this year. Linda is a longstanding friend from long before I became active here at dA, and also a Sister in the Lord in whom we mutually believe and have faith. Her gentleness of spirit, and her constant encouragement, both through her own art and things that she says, as well as the Scriptures she so often shares have been pricesless to me, and often broken a certain hardness of my own heart...


:thumb50636787:

This was dedicated to me by a dear friend, :iconrozrr:. We've known one another from other sites and have lots in common too. She is a precious soul!


Terragen: PINK by 1footonthedawn

This was made for a few of us, myself included, by :icon1footonthedawn: in celebration of the fact that we do not have breast cancer, 'though we each once faced this scare and went through the trauma of treatment of various kinds.




This was dedicated to me by :iconmayahs: because of the emotional response the image wrought from deep within me. So much of me reaches out to the girl in the boat as she represent so much of the pain and rejection I have felt, particularly in the early stages of my life and right through my childhood and teenage years. Every time I see it, I want to cry... And although I have problems of a different sort now, I'm so grateful that I now live in a peaceful place with a wonderful, loving family - and all my friends here who cheer me on and give me comfort when I need it!


For AnnaKirsten by Sophquest

This one was made for me by :iconsophquest: because of a newly formed friendship, and I just love her warm, loving heart! We also share a love of Sarah Brightman's simply breathtaking singing voice!

:bulletred: Have I missed anyone? Please let me know if I have, because I just have this niggling feeling... All because I didn't get things organised properly before now!
