In memory of our dear mother who would've been 86 today and how near she, our dad and our great grandmother still are to me. Amazing how the 'invisible' ancestors can still communicate much love and support to us once we focus on the loving connection rather than all the short-comings of expressing that love.
We are so trapped in our human bodies, so influenced by our experiences and if we're not careful our bad experienced might overshadow the good ones. To keep alive our positive connections and build on those is so conducive to wellbeing.
By passing along the narrow road they widened it, and while they went along, trampling on the rough ways, they went ahead of us (from Augustin of Hippo)
Of course, we should learn from our own and other people's mistakes. My dad always said 'if you can't serve as a good example, at least you can serve as a bad one' 😄
Neighbourliness is thriving during the corona. As we went up the country lane last Sunday and got talking to various neighbours, at a distance of course, we were handed 10 farm eggs by one of the farming couples. So later today I'm baking a pear cake and bottling up some fresh birch-water in order to carry on the positive communication they've offered. Isn't it in sharing our good fortune in whatever little way we can that we 'widen the narrow road and trample the rough ways' for one another?
