Dorsey first made me aware of the big changes going on at Willow Creek. This is a huge deal. So many churches these days have pretty much borrowed the formula from them, while others out right stole every little thing they have done, and based their entire church structure on the Willow Creek method by having them be entirely seeker sensitive. Ummm, that's great, but what happens to them after they come in and start attending regularly? How will they grow if their church is meant only to get people in the door? That's the problem Willow found. Sure people were getting in the door and perhaps getting connected, but they weren't maturing. You may have numbers, but that can only do so much if the body stays immature. It makes me respect them all the more for realizing their mistakes.

I have been drinking Willow Mineral Water for nearly three weeks now, and I have been less itchy so we are fairly hopeful that this can help me. Mum adds the water to my meals so they are like a soup, it is too expensive to use in my normal drinking bowl as I usually tip it over before I have drunk the water. The best buy for Willow Water seems to be Sainsbury's or Waitrose, where it costs 99p
The weeping willow (Salix babylonica) is perhaps one of the most common trees to see in parks with ponds full of ducks and geese. I have fond memories of standing on the edge of a pond feeding the ducks and occasionally a large swan with a majestic Weeping Willow tree on a small island as the backdrop. The image above is of a pond in Laurelhurst park in Portland, Oregon. The tall trees behind the Weeping Willow are Giant Sequoias.The image below is of a Weeping Willow in early spring before the green leaves appear. The smaller branches have a orange-yellow color that gives the Weeping Willow an interesting appearance even in Winter when it has no leaves. This particular tree is located in a park on the north side of Spokane Washington.The image below is of the new leaf buds along the

WILLOW
Willows are magical trees with slender pale silver-green leaves. The weeping willow originated in China, where it graced cemeteries as a symbol of immortality, and the tree had spread to the Near East by Biblical times. As Old Testament reference to the exiled Jews hanging their harps upon the willows as they wept beside the rivers of Babylon led to the weeping willow’s classification by Linnaeus as Silax babylonica. In ancient Greece, the goddess Hera was born under a willow on the island of Samos, where a magnificent temple was built to honor her. In the underworld kingdom of Pluto and Persephone, Orpheus touched a willow branch and received the gift of supernatural eloquence. Willow groves are sacred to Hecate, dark goddess of witchcraft.

Willow Bends Jewelry is a small shop that specializes in beaded bracelets--bracelets that catch the light and sparkle with their delicate structure--and the designs come in several basic patterns. There are daisy chains in a variety of colors (the amethyst is my favorite), bracelets with netting (in iridescent pastels), and bracelets with multiple strands (like this one with four strands in beautiful blues and greens). But I'm saving my favorites for last. The Criss-Cross bracelet pictured at the top has carefully interwoven strands of blue and green that remind me of rippling waves and the Flower Trellis bracelet pictured at right which has lovely frosted golden beads dangling like yellow roses on a wall. I can't decide which I like better--though the blues and greens of the first bracelet probably win by a nose.Oh, I almost forgot to mention--custom orders are welcome so if you see a pattern you like but would like different color you can get one of these bracelets made to your

In these pictures you can see willow tit birds (Poecile montana). It was amazing to see how fearless these birds are. I could stand 1 meter away from the willow tit and photograph it. I was even able to use my flash, as they got used to it after a couple of shots. I have to try if they will eat from my hand.
Notice the falling sunflower seed in bottom left corner of the first picture. The willow tit kept filling it’s small beak with lots of seeds, but some fell out
I have been observing the birds as they hide seeds so they food during the winter. I been reading about the black capped chickadee (a bird living on the American continent that look very much like the willow tit) and it’s said that it can remember thousands of hiding spots. I wouldn’t be surprised if the willow tit have the same capability.
The nature is amazing

Olen saanut tutustua useisiin australialaisiin lastenvaatemerkkeihin, ja olen totaalisen ihastunut merkkeihin kuten Edenstar ja Paper Wings. Laatu on huippuaan, ja vaatteissa on jotain jujua. Australialaiset lastenvaatteet ovat moderneja, mutta samalla tuovat tuulahduksen lapsuuden muistoja itsellekin. Vaatteita joista tulee saman tien jo klassikkoja. Yksi upea australialainen merkki on Willow and Finn. Leikkimieltä ja tyylikkyyttä ilman liiallisia rimpsuja ja römpsyjä. Väriskaala on harmaata, punaista, hailakkaa vaaleanpunaista, ja kuosit ovat yksinkertaisia mutta vaikuttavia. Saatavilla kaupasta Rosie Pose, suoraan Australiasta.
Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, by Haruki MurakamiThe overriding theme that coheres in this new collection of short stories spanning Murakami’s writing career is existential loneliness. Whether the protagonist is man or woman, married or single, straight or gay, young or old, none is immune to the vagaries of fate, the touch of death, the uncomfortable nudge of happenstance. Characters frequently do not know what is happening to them, why it is happening, or what to say about it. The freak wave, the poor aunt, the phantom phone caller, the ice man—all are simply manifestations of the unknowable darkness outside the campfire of quotidian human existence that waits patiently to envelope us.Standout stories are ‘Hunting Knife’, a juxtaposition of connubial complacence and familial misery; ‘Man-Eating Cats’ (which was the basis of the novel Sputnik Sweetheart), a harsh lesson in life’s unexpected twists; ‘Tony Takitani’, a study of absence that has recently been made into a
The Willow slip-on from Keds is absolutely adorable: You may never again see such a cute sneaker. The canvas upper is given a fashionable edge with its pointed toe and polka-dot print collar and bow, and the contrast polka-dot lining puts the icing on the cake, but the best part of all is: They're Keds. The thickly-padded insole and flexible rubber outsole will help keep you light on your toes all day long.

gently whispering touching my face
swaying in the wind surrounding me
shading me from the bright sunshine
embraced by you my willow tree
your arms so light i hardly feel you
like angel wings fluttering all around
your bark the strength to hold me
knowing so much yet not a sound
i love to rest beneath you and just dream
travel in my mind and just be free
spare a time to hear the birds, smell, embrace
all that is here and all that is me
when i lay beneath you i listen and learn
i remember forgotton thoughts of past
i smile at memories and laugh at some
wishing i could stay here this feeling to last
arise i must for time and tide wait for no one
rested and more thoughtfull dearest willow tree
ive had my thoughts and calm serene and lovely
thankyou for allowing me

A farmer was sitting on the front porch of his house this one hot summer day, when this kid comes walking down the road carrying a big bundle of wire. "Hey kid!" the farmer says. "Where ya goin' with that-there wire?" "Well," the kid drawls, "this here ain't just any ol' wire, mister, this-here's chicken wire, and I'm fixin' to ketch me some chickens!""You cain't ketch chickens with chicken wire!", says the farmer. "Why, sure I can!" the kid says, and takes off down the road. He comes back at the end of the day, and sure enough, he's got a whole mess of chickens caught up in his chicken wire.Well, the farmer's sitting on his porch the next day, and the same kid comes walking down the lane, carrying a big roll of tape.
