      Well hello Jeanne! How lovely to receive your email and read your kind and generous sentiments. Thank you so much for these words of encouragement. I especially like knowing that my writing is provoking “deep inner conversations.” This is what I’m aiming for! Every one of us has the answers within us but we must look. Much love to you my partner on the path :-)) xoxo

    Marguerite, this is a very appropriate post. Thursday, my sponsor for 24 years passed away. He was such a beautiful and spiritual man. Since then I have never felt so much sadness.
    I am not a channeler, but this morning an inspiration came to put pen to paper and what flowed was this:

    Look up!!! I’m everywhere. I have always been everywhere. I am in you; I am in the sky; I am in the trees. I’ve always been everywhere. I expressed as Bill Nesbit (my sponsor) and you were blessed to be his best friend. He now is everywhere. He wants you to share his being to the world-all his joy, all his laughter, all his kindness, all his patience, all his generosity, all his love. You are here to love. You are here to express that Love.

      Oh Sid I’m very sorry to hear about the passing of your dear friend. I do remember how close you were to him. No doubt this is quite difficult for you. What you wrote however is amazing! It’s beautiful and so spot on. Now to embrace and live as Bill would want you to – sharing his joy, laughter, kindness, patience, generosity, and love. This is what will keep him alive. This is the very best memorial you can possibly give. Thank you so much for sharing something so raw and tender. With love, Marguerite

    So true. It’s a painful reality along the lines of “things will be worse before they’re better” but it works.

      Good point Michelle. It’s hard to appreciate as we are living through the pain but once we are past it and can look back we see that not only was it necessary but it was absolutely in our best interest. xoxo
