We did a lot of sitting around the table sharing a meal, sharing in good times and conversation and the beautiful, yet invisible threads of family and friendship that tie us together. It was divine. From Easter Sunday brunch at the Golf Club with my two sisters, my beloved, brother-in-law, my youngest daughter’s man (she … Continue reading Share a Meal | 52 Acts of Grace | Week 51
It’s easy to tell ourselves we know everything there is to know about ourselves. Don’t believe it. Don’t believe everything you think. Often, your thoughts just aren’t true.

I can do what I want because everyone else is.” Fact is, doing what we want to create happiness, joy, wealth… cannot be at the expense of someone else’s happiness, rights, happiness, joy. We are inter-relational. We are inter-dependent. Like … Continue reading Take Care | 52 Acts of Grace | Week 44
