Warning......Emotional sap flowing free !!

Later today we are going to my Niece's First Communion. I pretty much wrote all about MY First Communion Here:... It was quite a heady thing for a young kid.

This milestone is one of the church's biggest sacraments and can be a great reminder of why we even do this.. You know the religion thing.

I too sometimes wonder that very thing, and then.... It is usually then, that I am hit right in the gut with beauty, grace, gratitude, and humility... often all at the same time.

Sometimes I am lucky enough to take myself out of the "Play" we are all characters in.. and I get reminded that in the end.. there really is something bigger out there then little ol me/ us.

It doesn't quite matter what church if any you belong to ... and it doesn't matter if you believe in this God, Spirit, whatever.. It doesn't matter if you believe in it ...

He/ She /It believes in you!

He/She /It clinks the cells together daily, and pushes what ever this life force is....to keep us a walking talking amazement!

We are all so special each in our own way...We are all connected each in our own way...That is why when one of us is taken out of the equation... it hurts. Badly

But like a wound ... the parts come together and immediately start the healing process.

Sometimes.. I am lucky enough to remember this..

I don't' know what moves me more.. the fact that my nephew and now today my niece will be sharing for the first time, such an important experience, or the fact that they are growing up into such wonderful human beings in general..

It probably is alot of both.

So while they stand up at the alter thanking God for this important milestone in their religious growth... I will be sitting in the church thanking God for my life, the people in it, and for those moments of crystal clear clarity, that I am NOT alone, and that I AM loved.

Sorry it can't be helped...

Important religious milestones, and Holidays revolving around motherhood ( Both in such close proximity) ... kind of gets the emotional sap running..

Hope you will indulge me.

I hope who ever you are out there get that to experience that same feeling ..... Often.

Peace Out
