"You can talk with someone for years, everyday, and still, it won't mean as much as what you can have when you sit in front of someone, not saying a word, yet you feel that person with your heart, you feel like you have known the person for forever....connections are made with the heart, not the tongue." ~C.

We know you here as a writer. When the wheels lift off, that chapter of your life will have ended. Your short flight is the pause. As the wheels touch down, turn to a new page and start the next chapter of your life. You are the author, it can be any and every thing that you want or hope for. You already have many of the main points listed, along with some of the goals you wish to achieve. Nothing is as yet written in stone, changes can still be made. Adapt and react as needed and required. Be true to yourself and honest to others. If plan A fails, go to plan B or any of the remaining 24 plans in the alphabet. Positive thoughts, especially when your feeling down. Keep looking for the bright side things. Now when the wheels touch down and you disembark, step off with your best foot forward into this new chapter of your life. L'chayim. Positive vibes and faith in you sandrewn

I wonder if any of the others realize the significance of the blue globe in Cias' birthday greetings. It was great! I hope you had a good day. I still haven't read any more of your last book. The fact of the matter is I haven't read almost anything since we last spoke, not even Marks' 'HMS Valiant'. The one thing I can and will do is wait till your second book is published and order both (to save on shipping. What, me cheap, well maybe). Must be a special feeling to know that your twin great grand nephews will one day get to enjoy your books as much as we have, now that's a legacy. I know I'm late but I would still like to add my few words in... Wishing You Palantir A Belated Very Happy Birthday!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUSTRALIAN. AUSSIE. - YouTube Sorry. I couldn't help myself when I saw this one. Happy Birthday [Party Birds!] - YouTube To make up for that first one. sandrewn

Age only matters if you are a cheese. ~Unknown sandrewn

A bit over 21, a tad under 25, no worries, be happy. Remember there are still over 5 Billion older than you. Curious, you do know that your element & sign is Water Rooster (very interesting)? I hope that you had and are still having a wonderful day. Let me add this last bit and you can get back to the celebrations. Wishing You Page Scrawler A Very Happy Birthday!!!

Thanks James, great info. Let hope others see it and take heed. sandrewn (a sometimes geek)

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of moments that take your breath away. ~Anonymous sandrewn

I am not going to let a little thing like being slightly late (okay, really late) to the party, stop me from adding my little bit to all this celebration. Lately (for me anyways) saying it's to late now and next time for sure, for sure. Only to find that missed last time was the last time and now it is to late. You are one of the foundation stones upon which GA stands. 'The Castaway Hotel' led me to you and the rest as they say, is history. So even though we've aged a bit since your BD, I would like to add... My Wish that You Bill W Had a Really Great & Happy Birthday!!! Disneyland Birthday Song - YouTube sandrewn

I was going to just try and sneak in here, do a fast BHB and run away before any one noticed. Then I said to myself, fess up and face the music. So... Cia it was your birthday and I'm pretty late to the party, in fact I missed it. I hope that you had a great day and that a good time was had by all. From me to you Cia here is a A Belated Happy Birthday Wish!!! sandrewn

Almost missed it, with a few minutes to spare. I hope you had a really great day and I wanted to add my little bit in.... Wishing You Caz Pedroso A Very Happy Birthday!!! Thanks for all that you do sandrewn
