A Bit of Holiday Cheer

I'm still here folks...just somewhat overwhelmed with life. Just a few little fun things for now.

The foyer of my building

My door...

My beautiful gal

She is GORGEOUS! How is she feeling now? How is her recovery from the surgery? Is the shunt working well?

Look forward to seeing more of your holiday cheer. Happy Merry!

Ms. Claire, you've got a lovely daughter there.... (stole a few words from Herman'S Hermits, 1965)

My Prayer

In this moment I accept that I have been given care of a very fragile person.
I accept that I may likely never know why this task has been passed to me.
In this moment, I accept that I need not know more than the fact that what I do has value.

With that, I will care for this person to the best of my abilities.
I will forgive myself for the days I could do better, but don't.
I will forgive myself for the days I would do better, but cannnot.

I seek to have clarity of thought that I might make choices most in balance with the many intertwining lives, including my own.
I seek to be supported in whatever ways financial and emotional that will maintain this balance.
I seek to learn how to draw from a well of infinite patience and energy.

I open myself up to the possibility of joy, of fulfillment, and of grace.
I accept that, in this moment, it is all I can do.
