Good morning my loving DU family,

Every day we get reminders to slow down, to relax, to smell the roses, etc...
As the sun begins to shine on this beautiful Saturday morning, let us heed those reminders and drink in all that we might ordinarily miss in our daily rush.
Please have a day filled with living those moments that we might normally miss and allowing their imprints to color our souls.
Love, John

Please keep Clouds passing in your thoughts, vibes, prayers or meditations until she returns.

To give you some peace of mind re: Clouds Passing

While I did have my sister post some updates while I was in the hospital, my first post wasn't until my sixth day removed from surgery. Having said that, please keep Clouds Passing in your thoughts and prayers, and if anyone else can give any timeline information from their own open heart surgery experience, please do.
We love you Clouds Passing!

Imagine if you will, (thank you Rod Serling)

A cool cloudy morning on the porch with a steaming hot cup of coffee and my freshly opened copy of The DU Informer with only the sounds of the morning competing for my attention.

Good morning my sensational DU family,

As I went out this morning to bring Cuddles in from his Night Stalker persona, the morning dew teased my toes and feet in a refreshing way. It reminded me that having a sensational experience requires more than senses.
Have an incredible day filled with moments that we experience sensation(al)(ly) through our inner stillness.
Love, John

Please keep Clouds Passing in your thoughts, vibes, prayers and meditations.

Good morning my talented DU family,

As the storm passes into the night, sometimes we get to see that magnificent lightning show from the clear sky behind.
The ability to find something not only redeeming, but stunningly beautiful out turbulence is a ever present gift to ourselves and others.
Please let us find the beauty or redeeming quality in our turbulent moments today.
Love, John

Please keep sending your energy, prayers, thoughts and wishes to Clouds Passing as we wait for her return.

Good morning my supportive DU family,

We've all been in that place where we're waiting for an uncertain outcome, be it a test, surgery, biopsy, difficult pregnancy as just some examples.
I'm so proud to be a member of a community so filled with love, compassion and empathy.
Have a joy filled day that is nourished by those and other supportive collective deeds.
Love, John

We're here with you Clouds Passing

Dear Clouds Passing,

I came down to the pond, with Cuddles just now,
And we were greeted by dozens, of souls, Wow.
The longer we sat, the more relaxed they became,
Each one here to share, the honor of your name.
We sent skyward wishes, thoughts and Prayers,
From all faiths n virtues, spoken from many sayers.
As we all welcome you, back to this earthly
plane,
We're all lined up CP, to embrace you once again.
As you well know, our souls make lifelong ties,
Today we gathered, as Humans, Cats, and Dragonflies.
Our final purpose, is to share in a collective scrye,
Sending each phrase of love, personally via Butterfly.

We love you Clouds Passing

Good morning Clouds Passing and the rest of my DU family,

On those mornings where anxiety and uncertainty seem the order of the day, please let our foundation be our strength.
All we've lived to this day prepares us for it so please, as we ready ourselves to face that extra challenge or obstacle today, let us be still, be brave, and trust that we're in the right place, at the right time.
Have a great day knowing that we're in this together CP.
Love, John

Good morning my inspirational DU family,

One of the great joys of being a member here are the over abundance of examples of living courageously, of setting benchmarks, of making dreams come true, of standing with those who need it, when they need, and sharing it with others so they may flourish too.
Please walk today with the knowledge that our gratitude cushions every inspired step you take.
Love, John

Good morning my warm DU family

I want to wish everyone a peaceful, enjoyable day with those you love today. Whether it's your grandchildren coming to visit, or fishing with an old buddy or going junking with the girls, please let a treasure of memories be created today.
Love, John
