Yes, when my children were born. A mother never forgets the travail, but oh how wonderful to hold that sweet newborn child.
When my daughter, my second child who's birthday is tomorrow, was born, I expected I was carrying another son (and oh how wonderful that son would have been also!) everybody in the delivery room and on the maternity floor heard my joyous cries of jubilation and indepth gratitude for that tiny beautiful baby girl.

yes, At the moments when confronted with my own death is when I feel most alive. Not really a feeling but a state of being. The delusion of time is exposed and everything happens at once. It can become somwhat of an attraction. That other mind arises above what we think is our mind, then another, then another etc.....

Ric, nice that there is still a handful of people on this site that understand - and more importantly - honor the Earth. Over the years this site has morphed into something altogether different than how it started. I think it time to join our friend Klaus for a while, if not forever. It is tiring that the powers that be are now using diversity to satisfy their own political agenda. Change is the only constant, we can flow with it, or we can oppose it to our own peril. Flowing is the only way... Stay well...
