MMTPT375~October 6, 2015~When Goodbye is All That's Left
Welcome to Teapot Tuesday
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty
and Challenge #375
When Goodbye is All That's Left
Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun!
The Rest of the Story:
1: No silly story this week. There is a limit to my craziness (there are some who would argue but they are family so who listens to them anyway....Pfffft) I can't do silly for times like this. Cindy Motherway (Mothermark) lost her husband recently and we need to show her our support.
2: By Author Unknown:
To say goodbye's impossible forever,
And yet we must too soon exchange goodbyes.
No magnitude of love when someone dies
Can manage the immensity of never.
Yet even death cannot our friendship sever
Though you may rest somewhere beyond our sighs
And all the talk of afterlife be lies.
Eternity is our brief glimpse of ever.
Even as each breeze must alter time
And each unruly rock reshape the sea,
So love lasts beyond our consciousness.
Each pulse of life's a piece of the sublime,
A breath so full of grace it cannot be,
A wave that ripples endlessly through darkness.
Challenge Translation:
Paper hugs and support needed in large quantities.
EPEC-extra points for extra credit:
Pat (foxy67) is the sister of Kenny and could use some of those paper hugs as well. So make an extra card or send a stash card to Pat and help yourself to a big handful of cookies....I've got plenty
Destination Station:
This week our destination is Loveland CO. If you would like a destination for your card, how about sending those paper hugs to Cindy (mothermark)
to find out why as well as get the address to mail your card, please visit post #480 in the Teapot Tuesday Destination Station thread. Please remember that just because you participate in a Teapot Tuesday challenge that is combined with a card drive request, it does not mean that you are REQUIRED to send your cards. It is totally 100% voluntary!
Be sure to you use KEYWORD MMTPT375 in your upload and post a comment here so we can all see your card
Ever want to get a jump on next week's challenge card? SCS has given Sheri (KSNurse) permission to create an email Teapot Tuesday Cheater Group and email the challenge out on the Saturday before the Tuesday of the challenge so you girls can have the weekend to make your card. Send her a pm with your email address if you wanna be a Cheater!
If you are confused about these challenges, see the first sticky post of this thread for more information. There is also a directory of individual challenges.
I am sadden by your loss and hope you can find some comfort in those around you who care and are praying for you.
