The closing blessing
Last night was a beautiful experience. I was asked to sit at the resources table so I could be available to those who needed to talk to someone. I told The Hubs later that night that I felt like people were lined up to talk to me because after spending a few moments with one person, another would be right behind them to share their story with me. I felt so connected with those who trusted me enough to share their grief and share their tears.

As I've said in the past, I can't but help think that this is part of my life's purpose. It seems so natural to me.

I have a lot to process about last night, so I'll keep this short until I can gather my thoughts. Until then, I'll leave you with the closing blessing.

May the light of your soul guide you. May the light of your soul bless the work you do with the secret love and warmth of your heart. May you see in your efforts the beauty of your own soul. May the sacredness of your being bring healing, light, and renewal to those you spend time with. May your waking hours never weary you beyond the point of replenishment. May the surprises of this life release with you wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement. May you be present in what you do. We're thankful for the privilege of being on this journey with you.
