...for one reason or another...

"A cat has absolute emotional honesty:

 human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings,

 but a cat does not."

Ernest Hemingway

...when you rest in quietness...

"When you rest in quietness and your image of yourself fades,

 and your image of the world fades, 

and your ideas of others fade, what's left ?

 A brightness, a radiant emptiness that is simply what you are"

...9.1.13...

do you see what i see?

Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am in a thousand winds that blow,

I am the softly falling snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain,

I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush,

I am in the graceful rush

Of beautiful birds in circling flight,

I am the starshine of the night.

I am in the flowers that bloom,

I am in a quiet room.

I am in the birds that sing,

I am in each lovely thing.

Do not stand at my grave bereft

I am not there. I have not left.

- Mary Elizabeth Frye -

she will remind.

in the hearts of our community.

they have come together today.

to play in a softball tournament.

to raise funds to go into a scholarship in her name. 

today is a celebration of Valerie Marie.

may there be much laughter.

filling the skies.

welcome to coffee hour.

welcome to this Sunday morning.

...the key is in your hand...

In oneself lies the whole world 

and if you know how to look and learn, 

the door is there and the key is in your hand. 

Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door 

to open, except yourself.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

in the bathroom this morning.

from the sun shining through the window.
