virtual candles

In the past 24 hours I've had two friends tell me about sick mothers. Ever since my own mom was sick, it's a constant theme. And I can't really think of anything harder in life, or to make one more vulnerable.

My Dad seems to be having some memory problems as well. Either from his brain injury last fall or from something new. It looks like we've finally talked him into going to the doctor.

On the bus I was thinking about my friends and my dad, and so I decided to go ahead and light some virtual candles at gratefulness.org.

Peace. Grace. Strength. Love.
