I attended Meet the Teacher night at Miranda's school this evening. I was
brought to tears by an announcement that the kids at her school have challenged
all the other high schools in town to a fund raising contest .. all of the
proceeds will be sent to the relief fund which has been set up. The Bank of
Montreal has money boxes set up in their banks and locations all over the place.
The Canadian Red Cross is taking blood donations...the list goes on. Even my
work place is involved, sorry I cant disclose how, that would be breaking
protocol...all the same, know that you, our American family have our support and
love. All of the talk from my peers at work is filled with compassion ..
sympathy .. empathy. Im so sorry too.
with warmest thoughts of love, peace, healing and hope.

And this loving is a drawing close,
a tuning in, an opening.
Until one perfect moment;
but how can it be expressed?
A receiving, an enfolding
as I cradle you in my arms.
Within my heart, within my soul,
You are my true love.
