Okay,so some mornings I get a few minutes to wax poetic and Then Some. Thanks to all who have been part of my journey Thus Far.
I got inspired by seeing the letters for ‘evolve’ in the word ‘Beloved’ which is on Kaelan’s headstone as it’s also on my Mom’s and really is part of Everybody’s headstone when thought of kindly by their loved ones…
I’ve often thought what a miracle it is that we Can have new people come into the world in such an incredible manner…and while we have All been Born, we hardly have time to think about it individually or collectively.
I like to use other terms than ‘infants, babies, little children, or even kids’ because the Latest (and likely Greatest) new insights (which of course are ancient but Somehow we Don’t really hear about them in modern times…) is that if we Live Many Lifetimes, the people born to us as ‘children’ likely were in our lives long ago And were probably Our Parents or Helpers.
Logically they would have Had to exist Before us so that we could mature enough to welcome them back in.
I like ushering and the idea that Everyone is an Usher, helping people through life if not as a parent, creating that pathway for a new being (physical yes, and spiritual again, very likely and Not Something we are giving a few minutes to think about.) Maybe Let’s Try to do that with a Five Minute Reflection Time Upon Awaking (Even with Eyes closed since many say this is a very special time to transition from a more spiritual being to the operational human being in the physical world’ being…rings true, doesn’t it?
Okay, need to post now so I can take in some of the Beauty of this May day…and again, Happy, Happy to Every Buddy and Pal near and far. One song that’s coming to mind I will encourage folks to google is ‘Jennifer Gentle, Fair Rosie Marie.. it’s a song about riddles which all out kids liked too, especially Kaelan’. I think it’s on a Folk-Legacy record by Ed Trickett.
Now don’t everyone call Caroline, let’s google it on youtube. I might ask my dear almost 85-year-young mother-in-law. Also I loved hearing that song in a small folk circle in the Falls Village Town Hall (Coffee House) and meeting little Emma who at 4 or 6 sang Rudolf perfectly.
I thought I’d love it if my kids would grow up and like singing..and that certainly has hatched out. There will be a lot of music in the village this weekend too so enjoy the vibe and maybe sing along with a folksy song to join in that energy, knowing some in the heavenly band will be doing the same.
Maybe more annual concerts to share a collective time of community appreciation of those who have journeyed on and those thankfully here to keep things going and join in the life force could be held, with an intermission of good eats and socializing in between for about a half hour….
If inspired to do so, check out a part of the memorial service on youtube of Kaelan since that captures the spirit of love and continued blessings I hope you are still feeling in your circles today. Well be having a festive family reunion to enjoy many happy events in our large extended family before too long and just getting together for a lovely meal and time to chat last year was ‘worth it’ too.
Even if physically getting together is a challenge, calls, cards and emails (and FB) can go a long way to help friends and family stay connected, so hopefully all can encourage folks new to that idea (or cell phones which by the way, Can Save Lives with 911 calls or other handy info too.) Okay, time to sail forth into this sunny day. For the record my real bday is May 14th which is Mother’s Day this year..
“Happy Mother’s Day to all Moms –however one defines that special role–and to mine in the heavenlies whose got lots of good company from over 80 years of being a kind, amazing kind of person with many talents and almost as many kids and friends.” HugEnergy, Catherinicus
