Still getting used to blogging...hahaha. But here we are just a few days away from a "new" year, if you're counting. I happened to catch the Kennedy Center Honors tonight on TV. While I feel all of the honorees are marvelous at their crafts, whom I've admired for their artistry, and who seem like really decent people, I find myself struck by the thought of how many people live their lives never to receive any honors, medals, applause, or even acknowledgment. I mean, I'm really struck by that. It's not like I haven't thought about it before, but for some reason tonight it's just hitting me with such a profound sense of compassion and appreciation for all of the souls who have passed through this world, seemingly unknown to the world, without which paradoxically there would be no world...
So tonight, whether anyone reads this or not, I give notice and honor to all of the souls who live each day, doing the best that they know how at any given moment. I wish you peace and grace with the hopes that your spirit be filled with that perfect, all-inclusive, illuminating light of love and not with sadness or fear. You indeed matter.
