What an Easter! I finally had TIME for myself and saved tons of entries the past days. What a treat. 
Is it like it is - sometimes real life takes over. It isn't that I don't like what I'm doing, no, not at all. But sometimes I would like to get a little time for myself. For my needs, my thoughts, my dreams and for my friends here.
But I still have my dreams, that makes me glad, that makes me smile. 
People like you taught me to dream on. 

Where's the best place for dreams? For me - it's still THE SHIRE. 
I love to be there, means to be here at my personal Shire. With my friends around. 
The world YOU are creating is pure magic. ALL of you, sometimes it's a little ficlet, sometimes it's a long story, sometimes it's a photo, a drawing, or just a little thank you.

When I close my eyes there is The Shire spread before my eyes in all of its glory, the glint from the Bywater as well as the round green door at Bag End. The thin wisps of chimney smoke is to see as well as the flowers, the trees, the little gardens, the Row. 

So I will stop and take a deep breath - can you feel and smell it? The fragrance is overwhelming.
Can you hear the voices, the laughter in the distance? This makes me smile again. 
Hobbits. I love those hobbits. But you know this already (why can't I stop smiling?)

I will love this all beyond remarking of the world.
I will always be bound to the most wonderful place ever with the most wonderful friends one can ever wish for. 

Today I cleaned my roof, sat there for a long long time, just listening to your words. 
So you see, you are always by my side -
It's a great feeling I can tell you,  it makes me feel ... home. 

Have a wonderful Monday full of dreams, heartbeats and love

Julchen

I had my own Shire this morning. I had a walk with my parents through the woods behind their house. All the birds were singing and we saw so many animals. It was like there were no other people within miles. That was so nice and relaxing :-)

Nothing's better than having time for yourself and I'm so glad you finally had it and spent it as you please.

How lovely, I think that the Shire is wherever there is nature, simple life, love, friendship, smiles and dreams.

I'm so happy you have our own Shire, I think I have mine too, we're so blessed.

*hugs you tight sweetie*

"I think that the Shire is wherever there is nature, simple life, love, friendship, smiles and dreams."

That's why you are so dear to me, little sister.

*hugs and snuggles*

I saw you on AIM and wanted to say hi but I was on a board meeting -- and AIM was acting so flaky, I was afraid I'd get thrown off.

Anyway, I'm glad you had a lovely day, even if I didn't get to tell you in person! x0x0x0x0x

I'm so sorry we couldn't talk, Annie! Hope to meet you soon, Rammsteinchen!

You know, I think you have one of the most poetic souls I know. What a beautiful post!

And our roofs are a fine place to be. Would that they were grass-covered!

"Would that they were grass-covered! "

You always put a smile on my face - and today it's even bigger than normal!! You have such a beautiful soul and it brightens everything you touch. I'm so glad you got some time for yourself - we all need that now and then.

You are very special. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Thank you for being here. Your post means a lot to me.

As for dreams and RL.... my motto (one of them) is life needs dreams, and dreams need a life. So the best way is to make time and take time for dreams, and make dreams and take dreams with you everywhere you go.

And as for the Shire, this is my newest motto, a quote by William Blake, which I placed under my own Shire pic representing my own being bound by Love, to here.
"And when you enter into their Bosoms you walk in Heavens and Earths, as in your own Bosom you bear your Heaven and Earth and all you behold..."

Thank you, sweetheart, for your wonderful words. You don't know what they mean to me. I couldn't have said it better.
Life without dreams would be very very poor, and yet there are people they have to learn to dream again.
I love this picture, it looks like the shire, honey. I'm glad you are a part of my Shire, I really am.

Lots of love so come on let's dream together, my dear!
