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

Compassionate Solidarity

May the God of justice and mercy unite us in
compassionate solidarity with all those in need, that our lives
may be just and merciful, and a source of her blessing
to many.
- MARCHIENE VROON RIENSTRA

There is sadness all around today ... from the local murder of a loving a kind gentleman
to the slaughter of  so many innocents in a movie theater in Colorado ...
violence and insanity have broken many hearts
this day.
The voice of fear and vengeance becomes loud and
contagious at a time like this.  Only faith and
compassion for all makes any sense
at a time like this.
May we all respond with love and compassion
for all.
~  Cate
