Hiraeth, a longing or homesickness "It is difficult to define hiraeth, but to me it means the consciousness of man being out of his home area and that which is dear to him. That is why it can be felt even among a host of peoples amidst nature's beauty; like a Christian yearning for heaven." --D. Martyn Lloyd Jones

I actually did this in late 1983! It's on one of my father's handkerchief's, after he died that year, so it's very special to me. In fact, it's the only thing I've ever paid to have framed! Kath
Oh, Kathy! I didn't know it was one of Dad's handkerchiefs! Or if I did, I had forgotten that (but I can't imagine I'd forget that. . .) You're right, that makes it even more special.
And it is beautifully framed, even though it doesn't show in my pictures.
