you have a beautiful way with words - this resonates deeply today as I try to hold both utter heartache/grief and the "all is generally terrible" alongside the "I'm so thankful for my kids and the 'mom play soccer with me' and the giggles and the flowers blooming on my pear tree." And I trudge on trying to love. thank you!
Thank you, thank you for your words. They give me so much hope. I'm crying at my desk today as I read this one. I so enjoy every single thing you write and I resonnate with so much of it.
I have found that the more people I know, in the widening circles of my life, acting in love is easier as the years go along. My mantra for years has been: The more people you know and who know you the harder it is to hate.
My goodness, that’s beautiful. It’s so easy for me to become bitter and fearful at the mess we’ve made of things, and to forget the wonder and beauty of life. Wow. Such wisdom. Thank you.
This is a lovely essay and a good reminder to go slowly and hopefully in our every day. I've been mindful of life's rhythms lately. My mother turned 90 this year and, although, she lives with Alzheimers, I can see myself becoming her. I can also see my 29 year old daughter becoming me as she gets married this year and begins her grown-up life. It is the way of things. Beautiful breath prayer, too. Thank you as always!

“Become the lighter of candles when the darkness presses in close” this and all of it so so good!

Thank you for this gorgeous offering! I needed this today.

Beautiful breath prayer!
My recent breath prayer:
Inhale while praying, "Holy Spirit lead me."
Exhale in silence and peace.
Trust that He will lead you!
Keep praying it in sincerity and trust!
Relax and listen! Trust you will hear eventually. He leads when we seek Him!
