The End of Growing Pains.🌲

August 27, 2019

Good morning and happy Tuesday! After several long months–this is it. The end of this collection of writings called “growing pains”. I’ve written about my own grieving process and now denial simply melts away and acceptance grows…

Thank you to every one who has supported this blog. It is because of YOU. I am grateful beyond words.

So, now it’s time for me to clean up and reorganize. Something is on the horizon and I look forward to sharing new adventures with you!

Be well and keep love alive with all that you do and say! This is an awesome community! 💓

With so much love and gratitude,

Nina

Baba’s Song Revisited 🌚

August 25, 2019

This image of a young woman with her aged, dying grandmother to whom she asks, “…sing the song again…”

Wishing you a wonderful week ahead and trust that ALL is as it should be…even if it looks scary.

With love and gratitude,

Пісні бабусі:Baba’s Song 🌻

August 22, 2019

Hi dear friends and readers. After many long silent years, this is me learning (attempting) to speak/sing my native Ukrainian. Whew! This was a tough one for me…on many levels. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your continued support and kind words. 🙏🏻

With love and gratitude,

Nina Zain

This is for you, Baba.

Death Song🌑

August 17, 2019

I Am A Poor Wayfaring Stranger.

This beautiful hymn (and others) can be found in the public domain here:

http://pdhymns.com/

“I am a poor Wayfaring Stranger,

Traveling through this world of woe.

Yet, there’s no sickness, toil or danger,

In that bright world to which I go.

I’m going there to see my Father.

I’m going there, no more to roam.

I’m only going over Jordan.

I’m only going over home.”

Southern American Folk Hymn

With love and gratitude,
