 |  I love my freedom to eat what I want to eat, like chocolate items. I also like my freedom to go where I want to go and to rest where I want to rest. I love to look out my windows and see birds, etc. I also love to watch my TV. I guess I'm like a cat in some ways. Cats love their freedom to look at fireworks, but hate the sound of fireworks. |

 I still have my Christmas trees up in my living room. I love to think about the birth of Jesus Christ, and at Easter, I think about his love from heaven. Here is a poem I wrote to celebrate this year's Easter called "Easter is a Time for Love":
Easter is my favorite holiday because of Jesus having a new life in a heavenly eternity to stay in a happy place while overseeing earth’s strife. I love the eternal love of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and God high in the sky. Jesus Christ his own loving life sacrificed to help many sinners when their bodies die. I’m like a sheep following a Shepherd great who helps me lots from His position above to find my way through mazes to freedom’s gate while receiving His eternity of love. I love to celebrate heavenly love with family, friends, and the three above.  One of my New Year's resolutions is to continue to do what I have been doing to lose some more weight and to stay healthy. I'll still be eating a lot of vegetables and trying to exercise more. I love to eat salad and vegetables. Then I can continue to eat chocolate and other dessert items. I also do things like shovel snow and mow my own lawn for some exercise. In some ways, it's nice to have a small yard and driveway.
 I'm so thankful for my current life, including my family, friends, and pets. I'm also thankful for my current job and for the many accrued vacation days that I had this last summer, so I could write and have published another book of poetry: Paw Learning Mazes. I'm also thankful for the many learning processes that I've used in my life and for being able to help others to learn how to write, read, study, and think logically.  I love the Easter eggs on the cover design of Holidays Amaze. I also like the bright yellow color. The poem about an Easter egg hunt for Sunday School children in this book is interesting in the way the children reference parts of the bible. There's a nice narrative poem "Sticking Together on Easter" on pages 21-28 of Holidays Amaze; the children and adults in this poem are doing an outdoor Easter egg hunt near a pond. Here's one of the stanzas from page 22 of Holidays Amaze:
The youngest child showed a picture on his sock: Jesus was helping Peter to water-walk; the child then pulled from his bag a book to show the hands of Jesus working miracles aglow: many acts of feeding, healing, and helping, such as saving the scared Peter from drowning.  My cats are very helpful with different Christmas items, especially on Christmas Day. This photo was taken more than four years ago. The cat on the right side of the tree is now in heaven. The one on the left side is less than ten years old and very healthy. He sometimes even acts like a kitten. These two cats used to act like a brother and a sister. At Christmas time, I love to meet with my pets, family members, and their pets.
 I'm so thankful for Paw Dream Mazes now being available online and for my many author events. There are so many mazes in my life and in the lives of my pets. When I'm driving to work, I usually can choose between driving on the highway, driving near a lot of red lights, or driving near a lot of trees. I often pause to think about the different ways to drive, walk, or run. I also love to go shopping, so I can look at and think about different possible food items. Especially for Thanksgiving, the food items are a lot of fun to look at, and I'm thankful that I'm able to choose from different items while seated at a table with family members.
 I took the photo in this posting at the beginning of January 2020. The stained glass window in the photo is entitled "Easter Morning," was created by Louis Comfort Tiffany, and is in the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. I very much enjoyed this trip and am sooooooo thankful to have visited the Museum of the Bible. I am even more thankful to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for giving me eternal life through his sacrifice. I love being a Christian and knowing about God's love being available through eternity.
