Tribute

Many forms of meditation or worry management include giving up "troubles". Some suggest writing them out and putting them in a basket or bowl set aside somewhere in the house or moving through them in some mental sense. Well, if you are concerned about the energy or "chi" in your home the basket/bowl doesn't flow. Imagine how stuck that out of the way place would be! And, moving through them in meditation may be tough because the troubles may linger. That leaves prayer.

Today we say goodbye to our friend Kim, with prayers to lift her family up and that her life be a celebration. May her young sons see the joy she brought to them and not live in a shadow but let their own lights shine to honor her.

Briefly, today, appreciate your life.
