Offering

After a week of being brought low by a cold and by physical and mental exhaustion, the sun was shining this lovely Sunday morning. I took the opportunity to go up to Narnia and made this little offering to float upon the waters there. I suppose it was a kind of thank you for my Mum's life, for my healed relationship with her, and for coming through this week of illness and suffering. In my interfaith training we have reached Buddhism this month. It seems fitting at this point to be exploring this faith path, which understands at its heart that life involves suffering, while offering a means to transform our relationship to that suffering. And so it is.
