Thinking of a Buddhist story I read many years ago about a community that had a big tree in the center of their town. Everyone was to write down their problems. And hang them on the tree. Later, everyone was to go back to the tree, and pick a problem off of the tree. After reading of others struggles and hardships, they each ended up picking their own problems back off of the tree.
The moral to the story.... we only have to read here, on our 'own' community tree, to see that maybe we don't have it so bad compared to others... so, today, I pick my own problems.
For everyone hurting, questioning, scared, worried, unsure, sending extra strength to get thru what is going on in your life. And to always remember, we are not alone... lots of gentle hugs to everyone this morning..
