Peace Be with You, Grandma

I would like to dedicate this
Second CM1111 Event to my
Grandma Herminie. She just
passed on February 2nd, 2008.
She had recently turned 89.

After the tears and the funeral,
our family shared many hours
pouring over old photographs
and reliving her life. Most of it
was unknown to me, and I feel
very blessed to have been able
to be there in person this week.

One of my favorite things that
came out of Thursday's events
was that the family thought I
should have a piece of her
jewelry...a small silver and white
charm with the word PEACE in
bold, capital letters.

There could not have been a
more appropriate piece! I will
wear it with pride and in honor
of her, my peace lovin' Grandma.




Even though I was not able to
have a verbal two-way conversation
during my last visit on January
29th, I shared with her about our
first CM1111 event. I'm sure she
liked the idea and will be with us
today as we unite together to focus
on inner and outer peace.

May peace be with all of you...
and on this day, especially with you, Grandma!

My heart smiled today as I read your dedication to Grandma. It lifted me up and gave me further confirmation that she is indeed peaceful now and is my new guardian angel. Peace be with you, my sweet girl!

Thank you so much for starting this group meditation. It was one of the most beautiful experiences I have had so far. As we were in the circle I felt my heart chakra stretch open and this incredible light come from it, connecting to everyone in the circle, and then spreading beyond. It brought me to tears, and was so incredibly healing. This may sound a bit dramatic, but I walked away from that circle a different woman. I feel so blessed to have the experiene and look forward ot many others. Namaste' beautiful spirit.
