    Sky King, what you wrote echos on my own heart. I wish my dad would come and take my mom home with him, she misses him with every breath she takes, and her health has made her a prisoner in her own body.

    Sometimes reading what others write here helps give me perspective on my "issues." I was going to come and whine about something at work, but instead, after reading Skyking's beautiful post, I realized I am so lucky. My life is good and the things that are annoying are just pesky mosquitoes in the grand scheme of things.

    Sometimes I wish there was a "like" button here! Ditto to what Veronica said.

    (((Pax)))

    Some of us are carrying heavy stuff, some of us have lighter loads at the moment, but only a few have nothing weighing on them, I bet. So here's a virtual hug to all my TE friends. You're a consistent inspiration and solace to me.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    Pax and Sky King, thinking of you both during these challenging times.

    Wow, Now I know how special each and everyone who reads and posts to TE really is. Your kinds words really hit home for me today. Thank you. While I am excited to have ALL of my family gathering this weekend I know all of you understand the wee bit of stress that comes with that! Virtual hugs to everyone!

    Dear G-d,
    I am in Vermont on a bike tour. I do feel a little guilty for scheduling this on Yom Kippur, but instead of being at home and pretending to fast, going to services, and taking a bike ride, hoping that no one I know sees me, I will repent for my sins while riding in gorgeous scenery. Since it's all "already written and decreed," can you please inscribe me in the Book of Life for one more year?
