ASTONISHING OD !!!
by Carpe Diem!Since the unique and astonishing OD Site opened its arms and its heart to me almost exactly 5 years ago, like many of you, I have been invaluably enriched by so many heart-warming, funny, magical, challenging, supremely social, and overwhelmingly enjoyable, experiences and events. So I've been inspired to write some reflections going into 2017! Hopefully, there's something in them which strikes a chord with you.
Happy New Year to everyone and thank you. I feel very blessed and very lucky with you lot. X

CDCarpe Diem! on 30/12/16 @ 19:34So all these things
run through our Soul,
with energies linked
as forwards we stroll,
as nature entwines
its sinews around,
with beauty entrancing
there's much to be found,
so much to discover
and yet to be seen,
so let's all get going
in two-o-seventeen
Yes OD reigns
as a beautiful group,
a family of folk,
an amazing troupe,
with friendship and love
striding right at the fore,
yes, let's all go forwards
to find what's in store!
AND MORE!!!
