~ Peace On Earth ☼ And Goodwill Toward ALL ~

<>

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
~ St. Francis of Assisi

In The Beginning ~

~ LIFE ~ 
Love the way John puts it:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ~ The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father and Mother, full of grace and truth ~

Out Of Harm's Way

Wish I could keep you from harm, any hurt, ache or pain. Wish I could keep you safe, protect you, out of any trouble, offer you shelter from lifes storms.  Wish I could carry you on my back and make sure no one ever breaks your heart or your spirit. I wish for you love, health, happiness and all that is good for you. My wish then, is my prayer for you now ~

"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. ~
