SHE IS THERE

She is there. Today and always. And best of all, her spirit shines through you like... (I was gonna say "like beams of sunshine", but let's face it - it's more like a Mac Truck: there's no stopping it)!

A dear, dear friend's musing from last night's amazement:

"Tonight there is a total lunar eclipse. Did you see it? Was your night sky clear? Did you take the time to stand out in the cold and appreciate the beauty of God's creation? Sometimes in life, you can take a break from all the busy-ness, and find that one moment when you can truly appreciate that there is something out there that is both literally and figuratively bigger than you. In that moment, as you stand quietly and watch as nature shows you something truly remarkable, you can find this strange inner peace that you didn't even know you were looking for; you get that feeling, that the one person you love dearly (and will spend your whole life wishing she was there for the big moments) is right there with you, even for this one small moment. So for this, one of those moments, I am grateful."
