And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:

A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH
Please join me in thought-provoking conversaton! Namaste' Cate

Blessing them, each and everyONE

O Great Spirit, whose care reaches to the uttermost
parts of the earth; we humbly beseech thee to behold
and bless those whom we love, now absent from us, and
defend them from all dangers of soul and body.
                         -   Adapted From The Book of Common Prayer




One dance we did during the Dances of Universal Peace retreat was one in which
we recalled all the persons who had ever blessed our lives and called them all
into the circle of our memories  ... as these thousands of people came to mind
and we called out their names, they began filling the air like gentle floating
snowflakes.  It is incredible to really realize how many people have touched my
life over these 50 plus years.  Sometimes I simply pause, and I send them a blessing
in gratitude.  Life is generous, so very generous!!!        Cate
