That&#8217;s where I met Heidi (aka Hurry Slowly Heidi) and Klaus from Canada who were staying right at Blind Pass in one of the the sweet little cottages on the beach at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.castawayssanibel.com\/Pages\/island_facts.html\">Castaways Cottages<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We got to talking about the island, shelling and Hurry Slowly Heidi wanted to know a little about the LIGHTENING WHELK and FIGHTING CONCH they had found. I told her all about the shells they found then handed her a deep rich CALICO CLAM that looked like it had more of an animal print than a shell design. She unzipped a pouch she was carrying and handed me a bright green piece of paper and told me she was an artist and poet and has written a few books. I unfolded the note and read.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Those Who Bring<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Sunshine<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Into the lives of others<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Pass it on joyfully<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Creating<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>A moment of <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Harmony and <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Consideration<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Which in turn<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>gives rise to<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>A<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Circle of Love<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong> <\/strong> Hurry Slowly Heidi<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">She brought<em> <\/em>me more than just a moment of harmony and consideration.
