Letters of Appreciation

One of the assignments from last Wednesday's class "Year to Live" at Common Ground (http://www.embracehumanity.com/) was to start writing letters of appreciation to those people in our lives whom we remember, sometimes fondly, sometimes not so fondly.  I chose to start with the ministers in my life - all women save two, who helped me, guided me, counseled me, (is "counseled" spelled with one "l" or two?  I never can remember!!!) and coached my labor from childhood innocence to full-term birthing of my spiritual path.  Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!  I find, as I write, that each one was the necessary and requisite partner on my soul's journey.  Had they come in any different order or any other different time in my life, I would not have been open and prepared to hear and to receive their wisdom.  Once again I am struck with the Wisdom of our Lives - with the Grace of our Journeys - with the Holy and Sacred Ground upon which we walk each moment of our lives. 
No more words need be written - the song of rejoicing and thanksgiving fills my heart and all that remains is -
Thanks for it all! ! !
