 No Apologies - No excuses 

It's been a year since I blogged. I can't really explain why other than to be honest with you. 

A few years ago, I gave into what I had come to believe in - generic direction. 

There was a time that I planned my entire life - a ten year plan...a five year plan...weekly and daily plans. As I grew, I was taught by life's greatest teacher, experience, that I needed not plan. My Grandmothers had me covered. 

We all have within us (in our DNA) memories and more. Our Grandmothers live in each and every one of us whether we know it or not...whether we listen to them or not. If this blog serves nothing more than to wake you to that important and meaningful truth, it will serve us both well. 

Once you come to realize that she (perhaps a collective of  Grandmothers?) lives there, within you, you might be lucky enough to come to know her name. And if you are fortunate to pinpoint the source of your guide, speak her name, as I do, Jeanne Charbonneau. This will strengthen the bond between you and sharpen your senses to her every direction. 

I am not fortunate enough to have her picture (though I have been to her gravesite in Kransburt, South Dakota). I do, however, have a picture of her Granddaughter, my Great Grandmother whom I had known as a boy. 

My full name is Pierre David Bouchard. I was named after my Grandfather, Pierre Mercier (showing here). 

Alrighty then, I'm back with much to share and even more to learn. Hug...
