WORD FOR THE DAY
Monday, Jun. 17
Monday, Jun. 17
Every exit is an entry somewhere else.
Wednesday, Jun. 19
There must be always remaining in every life, some place for the singing of angels, some place for that which in itself is breathless and beautiful.
HOWARD THURMAN
Yesterday, between
the postings of these two WOTD entries, my mother passed away.
I love both these quotes for their simplicity and I completely agree with Howard Thurman, that we must stop and appreciate the small, silent experiences of beauty in our daily lives before our lives cease to be. I was looking forward to seeing mom next Wednesday but instead, we will place dad's and her ashes in my brothers back garden "next to the onions" as they requested.

I said it when I
last saw you but I never said it enough: I love you, mom.
