There is so much to take in. To receive. Moments to cherish. Fulfillment from life. Nature’s beauty. A rose. The toddler barely visible within the puffy snow suit. The animals. Our beloved companions. Love of family and friends. The endearing stranger we meet on the street. There is so much. The littered street. Plastic. Excess. Earthquakes. War. Suffering. There is so little. Time. I can’t possibly take in all that life has to offer. All the love. All the suffering. So, I turn my gaze towards the small things. These I can receive. Fully.

Beautiful imagery accompanied the healing, providing a sense of nurturing care and unconditional love. A year ago, on this very day, we gathered for her Celebration of Life memorial service. I spoke to the congregation filled with family and friends and shared the essence of the healing. It was my belief that others may also find comfort and healing through the imagery; and as such, I now share them with you. In times of Grand Transitions, may you find peace, love and support along the way. A Healing Two Angels […]
