In my mind's eye

Yesterday along the waterfront I passed by a couple who I deeply wanted to recognize as one of our patients and her sweet, steadily faithful husband, taking a long awaited walk out in the town, blanketed by sunshine and fresh air. Without even seeing their faces I made out the countenance of each and their obvious affection for one another. And before even making eye contact I looked, secretly hoping to see a trach.

[Jesus, we are desperate for your healing.]

"There is no version of this...

....where you come out on top."

Tony Stark preached one of the best sermons I've heard in a long time tonight.

MMMMhm.

a number to make you smile

540,000.

The approximate number of telegrams Queen Elizabeth II has sent to congratulate couples in the UK on their 60th wedding anniversaries.

And this:

full circle

I love those moments when, after you've gotten news that changes things, and you start thinking about the changes and what you can/should/need to do to manage then, and then you start preparing and find out more about it and things eventually come full circle, and then you just stop and look at things how they are now, today, this week, this month, this season.....you realize you don't have to do anything. That you're ok. And maybe shown that all this is, is just a shifting/rearranging of all the blessings.

I am often in need of moments where I'm reminded of how little I really need.

broken hearts

Sometimes I just wonder what it really takes to heal the spirit. Love the creativity of love.

I am so thankful to be given 2012 day by day, minute by minute, moment by moment.

Happy newest of years :)
