Shalom In The Wilderness: Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote

“Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

About Me

Country Girl: My name is Brenda. I love Jesus and it's my hope and desire that if you don't already, you will come to love Him, too. He is altogether lovely and always good! He loves you more than you could imagine, and He has great plans for your life. Just ask Him.; After 30+ years of living in Omaha, Nebraska, Country Guy and I returned to our roots in Illinois where we built a house in the woods on land once owned by Country Guy's great grandfather. We added a barn, a chicken house complete with chickens, and fenced pasture for our 5 beautiful quarter horses. We enjoy sharing these blessings with our family, friends, and guests who visit us from all over the world.; Our immediate family includes 3 wonderful children and their spouses, and 7 equally wonderful grandchildren.; I started this blog as a place to keep and to share my favorite things. In the process of discovering the potential of blogging I've also found it to be a great way to get the word out about news & ideas that are unpopular in today's media.; I pray that you, too, will find treasures here to keep, or share with others, and ideas to stimulate your thinking. Nothing would please me more.
