Well done, they said.

And thank you for the time and trouble. 

It was no trouble, but of course, it took time.

Yet when something needs doing and you are the one, you do it and work at it until finished.

Until the days grow back into shape.

.

On days where the light refuses to get excited like a confident showman, there is a hidden candle burning and flickering.

In the shadows, you can still see. 

They are the cause for pause. 

Then, bright illumination refuses your doubts and makes certain your best thoughts.

The swirling skirts of high ideals.

The clothes were worn with style and assertiveness.

In fact, the Fashion Games were a major competition in which only the winners were ever allowed to go shopping again.

Clothes designers were given free housing in what were commonly known as Fashion Houses. 

To win was to appear and land on a runway, like a well piloted bird.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you.

You are so very welcome.

Joy, love and smiles.

All possible.

There were two ways of looking at things.

That is, until there were three. 

The steps taken moved things forward, as is usually the way unless walking backwards, causing delight and joy. 

The new things were quite simply, and beneficially, the best of the long-known blended with the flash and insight of discovery.

So wise, cowgirl.
