I can always use some more perspective when I'm trapped in my own bellybutton.annacyclopediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461037288546901657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064998953162723258.post-67930068172430697422008-05-13T05:51:00.000-07:002008-05-13T05:51:00.000-07:00Welcome back!

It truly sounds like a gift, that connection.<BR/><BR/>I really appreciate your blog and your words. It feels grounding -- a kind of touchstone to come back to and remember -- ah, yes, compassion, acceptance, recognizing the moments itself in the moment.<BR/><BR/>Thank youWordgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06580973104447557466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064998953162723258.post-64523281718394086962008-05-12T19:07:00.000-07:002008-05-12T19:07:00.000-07:00I envy people who have faced their own deaths and ...I envy people who have faced their own deaths and have released the fear of it. I would like to do this withOUT actually facing death, but I'm not sure it works that way.<BR/><BR/>What a blessing to have moments of presence.Lori Lavender Luzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394441222262940632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064998953162723258.post-68914408116411383302008-05-12T13:18:00.000-07:002008-05-12T13:18:00.000-07:00Sigh!

I don't usually go for the old school stuff, but when it's done right, as it is there, it's the best. I love that portrait of the queen hanging in one of the stairways off the lobby. Ah, I just love the whole damn place. <BR/><BR/>Deathstar, your posts are so great. Sometimes when I read them, I feel like I found a big sister. (That sounds kind of weird when I write it, but that's really the feeling I have. Kind of a mix of warmth and awe.) You often say things I am trying to say, but with a lot more perspective and insight. Thank you for speaking your heart so clearly and with such wisdom. <BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you got to connect with your friend. People like that are such gifts.annacyclopediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461037288546901657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064998953162723258.post-48455245509016489122008-05-12T12:06:00.000-07:002008-05-12T12:06:00.000-07:00Now how did I miss that you were in Toronto??

You were staying only about two blocks from where I work, my dear (and I agree, a great choice of hotel! -- dh & I have gone there for anniversary weekends, etc.). Oh well, next time perhaps? I'm glad you were able to meet up with your friend. It sounds like she has made peace with herself -- so why is stuff like that always so hard for the rest of us?? (((hugs))) Chant away!loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.com
