How special

What a beautiful way to remember your mother in law, and I'm sure your friend will love those gorgeous flowers. We can find joy in the most simple things all around us.

🕊️🙏🏼Alistair, how wonderful that you had found your way to be enfolded within that moment, faith or fate ~ the chosen post for Dhamma interactive 2 days ago was Thich Nhat Hanh - "The End of Suffering" 🕉️ namaste Sylvia

Thanks Alistair, yeah ephemeral ( I had to translate it) summarises it. I even think that their beauty, short lived and fragile existence intertwine. I also find this in the japanese concept/tradition of Wabi Sabi.

Oh Mechteld, that is wonderful news. Such a blessed relief for you and family. YAY 😍😍😍😍♥️🙏

Lovely to read this news and your words. Go well. 🙏💖

Beautiful post. Connecting to nature for me is healing and peaceful, reminding me I am one with all the natural order of life - and death. And flowers became very special when my daughter gathered up my mum's gorgeous garden blooms & made the coffin presentation. It was spectacular. Mum would have loved it that her own garden flowers adorned her coffin.

That is so good to hear. Sending love ❤️

Great, I'll look her up, thanks Patti x

So lovely to read this, Mechteld. Have been thinking of you a lot since Mondays session and especially at midday on that day. I’m thrilled for you and your family, and totally inspired by your strength - they must be very proud of you. Lots of love ❤️🙏

Ahhh Mechteld-Hanna, I am so so pleased to hear your good news. I have been thinking about, especially at noon on Monday, and hoping things had gone well for you. Hurrah and a whoop, whoop from me! Enjoy the family without that heavy rucksack on your back for a while! xxx

Beautiful flowers...Beautifully arranged!
