WELCOME NOVEMBER…

There is something about November that says ‘keep going’.
We are not quite through the year, yet the finish-line looms.
We are plunged into darkness by Mother Nature.
We are faced with the ‘season of joy’,
and yet many of us wonder where we will find it.

And I think November is a great time to take a little peek behind you,
and see just how much you’ve done.
To take stock of your achievements, your endurance,
your survival.
To rest, reinforce, before the festivities envelope us all.
Before beautiful new beginnings.

And most importantly, November is a time to seek out light.
As the natural order darkens, we must find it ourselves.
We must do whatever we can to brighten our day,
our home, the world.

Seek out light wherever you can my friends,
and pay no heed to those who condemn your sparkle.

You are much-needed.

Keep showing up, in that special way only you can do.
And show up for yourself too
(which can sometimes mean not showing up at all).

This year has been hard.
Again.
But beautiful.
Again.

As is the way of life.

As is the way of life.

An Irish Blessing

May the blessing of the Earth be on you
May the earth be soft under you when you rest upon it,
Tired at the end of the day,
And may it rest easy over you when,
At the last, you lay out under it;
May it rest so lightly over you,
That your soul may be out from under it quickly,
And up, and off, and on its way to God.

Today is the feast of All Saints. We hold in our hearts St. Joseph of Arimathea, the patron saint of Funeral Directors, as he so reverently cared for the body of Jesus when He was taken down from the cross.

St. Joseph and all the saints, pray for us.

Halloween is the time when they say the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is thinnest, and those who have passed away walk beside us.
May you be comforted by love and faith today.

May you all find that soft spot for your head to land.

"I had been on assignment at a Detroit Montessori school for two days, and shot hundreds of photos. Some were very good, but I knew I hadn't gotten THE shot. That afternoon, as we all sat on the floor in a circle listening to a story, I bowed my head. When I raised my head, this little girl leaned over to lay her head on the little boy's lap. He very gently lifted his arm to receive her. I call this photo 'The Age of Innocence.'

The road to recovery when you have lost someone is seldom a straight path. There are turns and curves which means we have to slow down. While grieving, it is difficult to continue at our normal pace. Slow down, look around you, appreciate the acts of kindness shown to you, and stay the course. You will get to where you want to be, but it takes time.

"Everyday is a winding road. I get a little bit closer. Everyday is a faded sign. I get a little bit closer to feeling fine."

Be kind to yourself on that winding road.

Instead of saying, "I know what it feels like", let's say "I cannot imagine your heartbreak".

Instead of saying, "You're strong, you'll get through this, let's say " You'll hurt, and I'll be here.

Instead of saying, "You look like you're doing well, Let's say, "How are you holding up today?"

Instead of saying, "Healing takes time", let's say "Healing has no timeline".

Instead of saying, "Everything happens for a reason, let's say "This must feel so terribly senseless right now".

And when there are no words to say at all, you don't need to try and find some. Love speaks in silences too.

We Are The Rememberers

We are the rememberers
the people left behind,
to keep the one who’s gone from us
alive in heart and mind.
The people left to cherish
and preserve their legacy.
Yes, we are the rememberers
and we will always be.

"Just before the death of flowers,
And before they are buried in snow,
There comes a festival season
When nature is all aglow."
