"There is only one valid way to partake of the universe -whether the partaking is of food and water,
the love of another, or, indeed, a pill. That way is characterized by reverence - a reverence born of a felt sense of participation in the universe, a kinship with all and with all matter."
~ Dr. Larry Dossey
May we sense this kinship, partake of life with reverence, and, as Plato advised, bequeath reverence to the next generation.
"Let parents then bequeath to their children not riches but the spirit of reverence."
Whether or not we have children,
may we model reverence
for all the children
of the world.
Toward peace for all,
Charlene
REVERENCE. May you appreciate the wonder that you are and the miracle of all creation.
