Thank you for your description and for drawing us into you light-filled moments, Liz. Yes, "the birds have a lot to say". I wonder if we are listening.

Thank you for posting this life-giving watercolor by Sister Marie, Liz. Her image brings exactly what her title describes, a deep sense of abundance during this weekend that we honor our mothers and mothers everywhere. I remember the profound experience of meeting Kubler-Ross about thirty-five years ago after a talk she gave at Toledo's St. Charles Hospital. She spoke in a monotone for more than an hour and everyone sat riveted. Of course, her "Stages of Grief" are routinely quoted everyday by hundreds of thousands of people around the world - most of whom have no idea that she created this analytical model.

Thank you for this writing, Liz. Your sacred eyes see so much of life that others miss. Thank you also, Maureen, for sharing St. Teresa's comforting prayer. You and Liz are truly engaged in Sacred Work.

Cheri. I also wanted to thank you for sharing this powerful inmage from Kelly - "Here is the slumbering Christ, stirring to be awakened, to become the soul we clothe in earthly form and action. And He is within us all" (Kelly 1992, 3). This is one of the finest quotes I have encountered on the subject of our sacred work.

Thanks for this burst of spring color in words and photographs, Liz! Happy Easter to all.
