Life is short



Hi, Michele and Mark,
We are in Tokyo now awaiting the next leg of the journey.
My E-mail on the ship did not work.
We are looking forward
to getting home now.
Dad just learned the team lost today.
One more chance.
I want to see you on Tuesday to catch up,
and get dates for girls' activities and Marko's.
Love, Mom

life's journey


"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of

arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to

skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly

proclaiming- WOW what a ride!"

companionship


The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand,
nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship;
it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one
when he discovers that someone else believes in him
and is willing to trust him.

On being you.




Well my parents left Singapore and are in Cambodia now.
My dad text messages Macy during all of the Indian's games. It is like 7am Cambodia time and my dad is texting during the game to find out the score like every 20minutes.
He must be beside himself.
Have a great day.
Love,
Michele

Choose Joy



I recommend to them to let their wounds show.
We’re all wounded.
We’re all in some pain.
If we share the pain and work together and learn from each other,
then some beautiful things happen.
That is what life is about.
Joseph Campbell said,
"We’re here to participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world."
And that’s pretty much the way I feel about life.
It’s full of pain, difficulties, and sorrow, but there are also wonderful moments of joy.
And if you choose joy, you can have far more of those moments.

Tears


"Tears are an expression of lack of control.
They are prayer because prayer is communion with
that which is beyond our control: God.
A reporter was once interviewing an Indian guru about his work
in giving spiritual instruction to Americans.
The reporter asked the spiritual master,
'What is the first thing you attempt to teach Americans?'
The old man replied, 'I try to teach them how to cry again.' "
— Edward Hays in Pray All Ways
