When my mom passed away in '98, I was the one who had to give the ok to pull the plug and when she was announced dead, Jan, every bit of life within me was sucked out similiar to a vacuum -- she and i were extremely close and I never experienced sorrow as I had then. The irony was that while my mother was alive, I could never get past a first trimester with my pregnacies but 17 months after my moms passing, I had given birth to a beautiful, healthy little girl and I was so grateful because God took my mom but gave me this little person to take care of which allowed me to truly 'bury' my mom. I will never forget my mother, she stays within my heart, but, I was gifted with my daughter through her passing.

Yes, Blessings In The Mire was difficult to write as I re-lived the most painful episodes of my life, but it was (as the title suggests) also the biggest blessing of my life. I owned an Angel Store when he died, and I was surrounded by love and evnergy and blessed with all sorts of miraculous events. Those events are some of the most light-filled and gloriously 'coincidental' happenings you can imagine. It was a beautiful time to be learning of true sprituality and true spritual growth. I have a HUGE appreciation for the life events that have blessed me, often after I have sorted thru the mire. I think of a loving mother with a little toddler that has swallowed, say, a penny. The loving mother sorts through the baby's poo to make sure the coin has passed. Metaphorically, I sorted thru a life-time of 'mire' to come out better than ever. Besides, the end (thus far) result is meeting you! That seems all good. ;-)

Gotta go, heavy deadline -- nice to meet you as well!
