The arthritis had scraped it almost off when they got to it. Anyway thats what's doing right now with me. Oh My niece Liz gave me a lovely gift of a "Mandala Bible" By Madonna Gauding. I am having fun posting a little bit of each chapter and searching the internet for mandalas relating to the part of the book I am posting. And I am having more fun finding Mandalas for the chapters tha...(read more) |
