I think your gift was your willingness to receive from your family. It sounds to me like your giving is wearing off on them - how loveloy!
How exciting to get your medicine necklace! I keep looking at that as a give to myself as well. I send prayers your way for your family - I'm sure your support of them during their time of need is a perfect gift!
Today was a good 'mindful' day. I tried really, really hard to stay connected to all humans, nature, God etc.... First I took our yellow lab for a nice long walk (he LOVES his walks). The sky was overcast and grey and I really relished the quiet and…
