Happy Thanksgiving

I am thankful for all my friends in this world, the ones I know and the ones that I do not know.

I am Thankful for:

Doubt, now I know faith
Anger, now I know peace
Fear, now I know security and love.

Darkness, now I see light
You, now I know me.

I give thanks to all of you who have read the words I have put down here and have made contact with me via your posts and your thoughts. It is amazing how much my family of friends grows each day. I welcome all to my table and give thanks; for it is you that nourishes me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you
Namaste

The day of the Sand Dollar

You found a sand dollar once.
You held it so tenderly in your soft hands.
You looked at the delicate little sea animal and smiled.

Your face glowed as you handed it to me.
We were full of innocence of a new love, a new life, a new beginning.

Your enthusiasm for your discovery made me laugh.
We brought it home and gave a place of honor.

The day was warm in sun and in love.
The day was vibrant in color and in feelings.
The day belonged to us.

How I long for the return of the day of the sand dollar

A Moment Remembered

I was in the midst of a meditation this morning and an experience that occured a few months ago kept entering into my being. I watched the thought come in and go out, only to have it return. I knew I had to share it once again with people who may some how need this today. So here it is once again. The feelings I have today are the same I had in March.

Yesterday I was at a local hospital doing some reiki. The person that I worked on was and elderly woman who did not really know about reiki. Her daughter had requested a session, I was doing volunteer that day so I was able to go up to her room and provide reiki. She had told me that she was interested in this modality and was receptive to have reiki done. She had mentioned that she was married for 64 years and her husband was suffering from dementia. We settled down and was in the middle of the session when the woman's daughter entered the room with her father. The gentleman had a lovely red rose in a vase for the woman in the bed. The energy that was coming from the rose was really felt through out the room. The man then put the vase down on a table and walked to the side of the bed as I was continuing the reiki treatment. He just stood there and looked at the woman in the bed (his wife) a peace came to the faces of both these people. An inner glow was prevailing as he stood with love in his heart looking at the lady he loved. It was a beautiful sight that through all the happenings in the hospital room, the machines, the reiki, the music, that this couple could be alone in each other's energy and convey whole conversations with eyes closed and silence. I am grateful for being able to experience this, another learning in the lesson of life.Thank You for letting me share this with you.
Namaste
