"Sunrise" Chet Atkins

THANK YOU LIFE! For every blessed moment of it, For lessons learned gently or with a crushing blow. Thank you for the beautiful, ugly, painful, joyful. For reminding me to look for goodness, for peace in my heart and in my mind. For much... for reminding me to simplify, live with less, love, be.

¡Feliz Dia de Los Muertos!

Death can be so dark, so painful to let go, to accept the death of a loved one, of people who seem to be taken from life too soon or whose life has simply run it's course. ~ FAITH in something beyond the limits of this magnificent, vulnerable world reach much further than our limited scope reveals. To see the light in the darkness of death means to celebrate the spirits of the dearly departed.  Death takes on a special light, glows happily in celebration of the dead- the flame flickers from candles and dances merrily along, acknowledging and remembering the dead now and the lives they lived, the love that remains and is still part of the living, and taken to heart by those who wish to connect with the dead. From the sorrow surrounding death, the grief and harsh reality of the disconnection, stark and cold, so final and black to looking through the lens of Mexicans who say; "Si!" ♥ ¡Feliz Dia de Los Muertos!!! y Dios nos bendiga a todos, los muertos y los vivos! God Bless us all, the dead and the living. ~
