I love the fact that this is all in lower case-it brought a sweet/quiet strength to the message that helped to speak to me more completely.I had an occassion today that could have made me quite angry (it involved deer) but I went still (as still as I could while driving!!) and reached for the calmness. Then I sent loving thoughts to the driver in front of me. It really made me pause and remember what is really important and to let go of any anger. It is still quite hard but I find I reach for it more often than not these days and it has truly impacted my life. We miss you much-that technology can be tricky!! but we will be doublely thrilled to see you next Monday!Much love- Kristine (Alexzandra sends a hug:)!!)
