the passing

a message to a friend

I heard about your loss today

for a moment I felt such a sadness

she had been your friend such a long time

now her spirit had been taken away

then, on reflection I realized the kindness

of it all, her pain and suffering had been released

she was at peace

a gentle caring soul, her spirit will always

be felt, by family and friends who got to know and experience

her genuine warmth and laughter

for her, the life long journey here is behind her

she left with such grace, to the very end

she walked the path she believed in

she was an inspiration

I for one, celebrate  her passing

she is free and where she wants to be.

Namaste – Okyashikiri

International group heads out

International group heads out

I would like to thank gentleman and scholar, Harry S. for graciously carrying the flag (Canadian) for me this day. I had managed the day before, but two days in a row, my body was not wanting to co-operate. Rick our sidekick in the English speaking group, carried the American flag. (In all we were  5 English speaking participants) Jennifer is behind Rick, Machiko is to the right of Harry and I the sole wee Canadian, is behind Harry. Thanks Harry for the picture, we may be weeks in getting our copy of the Japanese paper this picture appeared in.

We were headed for the Kyososai celebration (Founders’ Day) August 1. where we honor the spirits of the First and Second Founders and dedicate ourselves to spreading and sharing the PL faith with others for the rapid realization of World Peace.
