Yogurt Containers

Rinsing out the yogurt containers because they are still good she points out how she sees the good and best in people.  People are the containers of spirit.  People mattered more to her than things.  The insides of people are not always easy to see.  We look at their containers and try to find out by reading their labels, opening the lid a bit, sniffing and smelling for a hint of who is inside to see if we'd like to partake.

To parake in relationship is our highest value....her's and now mine....I learned that from her.  She was able to see me inside my container, under my labels.  She helped us all see ourselves because she could see us; she helped us all value ourselves because she valued us.  Today we can pass on that gift freely, as she did, because we have it to give.  

And she knew that the contents of our containers change and mix into new and maturing spirit along the way; especially if someone is there to take care and hold the space and fill them with love.  She was always so good at that

Now she leaves this countiner behind. Free of it she can expand into the limitless space of unbounded eternity and unending bliss.

Surely to come back again into a new - freshly - washed and carefully rinsed out container

Yes, I know the justification. "Too much on my plate.", or something like that, but as others have pointed out, you have the gifts of feeling and insight. The World can use as much of those as you can put on a page..
