It's a dark, windy, blustery day. We are taking our daughter-in-law to the airport, and it sure could be better weather for her flight. She and our son will have a lovely time in London and Dublin, among family and the general friendliness of Ireland. The weather - well, probably the weather won't be lovely, but she's prepared. And we could be in London here today, with the overcast humidity and threatening rain.
I have to expand my field when someone I love is far away. It's stretched now to London and Dublin and Cork, but it has encompassed most of the world at times. It's good exercise, to think of those parts of the planet we normally ignore. To include them in our blessings, prayers and thoughts. Yesterday, I thought of Mexico and the earthquake. We are one planet, one living, breathing being. I try to remember that fact.
