In about 2002, I think... Andy left this note for me:
"Dear Mother,
Thank you for being so strong and alive throughout these years. I watched you as you stood steady through the rain and the darkness, always alight, always A Light for us to look to. I try my best to be that way.
Love, Andy"

I am thinking about Soos, and her anguish.
I am thinking about my neighbor who just lost her daughter, and her shock and pain.
I am thinking about my SIL whose son attempted suicide last night.
I am thinking about Abby in Israel and hoping that she has enough rest and sanctuary on her incredible trip to sustain the spirit.
I am thinking about EVERY ONE OF YOU and so grateful for your warmth and light in this circle.
