Dear friends, it is Tuesday again. My first thought then goes to Ursula, who initiated this day to be united in prayer. May she rest in peace.
May I express my deep gratitude for all your warmhearted support concerning my mother. I am sure it will help her during the next days to come. She will be operated on Thursday and by now, all has been arranged to have her protected from an anesthesia -induced push of dementia. I am so happy that this worked out.

Every morning I am grateful and I have to admit, curious as well 🙂 to meet you here and to be with you in this sacred space. My prayers are with all who are suffering. May they be consoled and held safely in the ever present and all encompassing love.

Good morning, dear friends. I woke up this morning, thankful for another day to live. And I am wondering about you, grateful sea. How are you? You are missed here, dear friend. If possible, please let us know. Heartfelt greetings to you.
I am missing Michelle, too. So long since you sent a note. How are you? Would you mind letting us know? Heartfelt greetings to you, too.

These days, the passing away of dear ones is part of my life. My mother was recently diagnosed to have developed cancer. She is 88 years of age now and we as her family are with her in finding out what is best to do. Only a short anesthesia had already caused some aggravation to her beginning confusion/ dementia, indicating that further surgery has to be questioned, as a push of her beginning dementia is highly to be expected after a next anesthesia and would be irreversible. Please, if I may, I would like to ask you for prayers for my mother.

As a child, there were rare moments when I have been deeply touched very much by something I could not name but it resonated deeply inside; numinous moments, some during few occasions in our local church, outside in the yard or at night while being under the open sky. It has become something which finds expression in my prayer, for the well being of people, for healing, for peace, and in meditation sometimes. It inspires to go for love, unconditionally, even if still often enough, I fail, where I still allow my life to be informed by unhealthy imprints, of which I am in progress to let go of, which once originated in a former dysfunctional, often quite limiting family-system. There were hardly any spiritual or religious imprints during childhood, but a kind of “knowing” about it, which I guess is present in everyone´s life in one or another way as to be reminded in our true home. I am deeply grateful towards the ones concerned to have been helped to find (back) to connect with these inner realms, inspiring prayer and help working to reduce suffering and support healing, God willing.

Dear Alicia, I am so sorry for your loss of your brother. Prayers are with his widow and son, as are with him and with you also. Please take good care of yourself during the days ahead. May loved ones and friends be around you these days especially to accompany you in your grief. I will lit a candle for him in my window. May he rest in peace.
Just to add that I am happy that your knees have healed, and I hope you are well concerning your breathing also. May complete healing be with you, dear friend. You are with me in my prayers often. Sitting with all our friends at your table and have tea and sharing would be so lovely. Sending greetings to you from my heart.
