You’re a goddess Marianne. This morning I thought of that song from the 60’s ( or 70’s) :

“ we are, but a moment’s sunlight, fading in the grass, so come on people now, smile on your brother, everybody get together try to love one another right now.”

Thank you Marianne for today’s writing. I recently read a quote by Ernest Hemingway, he said “We are all broken, that’s how the light gets in.” What a journey life is. 💖

Yes Marianne,

I have the opportunity to teach students older than me , younger, and sometimes teenagers. I frequently reflect on their ways of thinking, feeling, and acting. Contrasting similarities and differences. It truly is a kaleidoscope full of wonders.

Indeed! From where I am in the early part of my 6th decade I send blessings so that all may be surrounded with love and compassion, all the days of our lives. Thank you Marianne, Namaste
