From Within

Dedicated to my dear friend Cheryl

Cheryl is a good and wonderful friend for a long time on dA, and I am blessed to know her.
She- like others I have met here- helps in bringing me a sense of calm and peace from within,
both in their nature and in the nature of some of their own work, as well.
It's amazing how energy can work and transcend distance.
I also appreciate so much and recognize her helpful, compassionate nature, too.



A Feature of Cheryl's lovely work:




Dear Cheryl,
Thank you for being such a kind soul, a treasure of a friend,
and an inspiration.
Your Friend, Tea

^{“I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.”}
~Dalai Lama

^{[ NOTE: Thank you, in advance, for any 's I may receive for this image. I am honoured and grateful that anyone would think well enough to it. So thank you from the bottom of my heart . I understand if you don't have time to comment, but thank you for any kind comments, too.
It's important to know this NOW, as I may NOT be able to do individual thank-you's for 's, or in case I cannot respond to each comment, either. Thanks for understanding.
And, if you just came to view, I appreciate that, too.
