Every Day So Fresh and New

This is for one of my very favourite people here on dA, Dana for her BIRTHDAY
which was back on April 18th! [ Yes, this is very much so be-lated, which some of you may know why I am SOOO behind with B-DAYS, and everything for that matter, and I DO know that Dana knows and understands...
I only wish I could be able to give every missed B-D something... but I'll do my best to do a few... ]


Dana truly should have received some kind of gift already from me by now, as really I cannot thank her enough for so very many things! She is especially wonderful in so many ways...

She has supported me with The Shelter Project in every possible way that there is to do so, and additionally, and more importantly has extended a genuine friendship to me for which I will always treasure and be grateful for. 's

Dana is a lovely person and kind to so many, and I love the group that she and Lin *Lirulin-yirth run together called:

It really is delightful.
And Dana is absolutely delightful her own self.

I also enjoy her wide variety of artwork, SO MUCH SO!

Here is a sample of her wonderful work:



Happy Birthday to You
Even if I wasn't here that day
My thoughts were truly with you
But as they tend to be...
For I am one who believes
That every day is one so fresh and new...
~ Tea of Tea Photography May 2011 for Dana.

Dear Dana,
I hope you had a very wonderful Birthday in general, as well as a lovely one here on dA! I saw, just as I was finally signing off of dA about a month ago at this point, that your B-Day was the 18th! And I was so sad to realize that I would be missing it, and I knew I'd create something for you as soon as I could.
I wished I could have been here, but I thought of you, on your day! But know, that I am of the philosophy of celebrating those I care about each day, and each time I think of them. It is the way that I think and believe, and I've mentioned this before from time to time, and I celebrate you and celebrate who you are and the fact that I know you...
I only wished I'd found Forget-me-Nots, so that you'd know that I did not forget you while I was away, but I did not have those flowers where I came from nor where I moved TO... so far.
I hope these will suffice, as I love purple alyssums, so I am sharing them with you.
Thank you for everything. You are an awesome friend! 's
Your Friend, Tea

^{[NOTE: I just wanted to say, in advance, how especially grateful for anyone's I may receive for this image. I am honoured that you would enjoy or think well enough of my work here, to it. So I thank you profusely, and from the bottom of my heart . And because I do realize time constraints all too well, I understand, if you are unable to also leave a comment. However, whichever you may do, [or even both! ] I genuinely appreciate it beyond measure. I need you to know this now, in case I'm not capable of doing individual thank-you's for 's, which I've not been capable, or in case I cannot respond to each comment, either. Thanks for understanding.
And even if you just came to view! I am also very HAPPY for this! ]}
