Beloved,
Summer has jumped right over Spring although Spring has not given up quite yet. The last two days were 91 degrees here in the Northeast. I love it and have gone out in my kayak a couple of times. Hardly any boats are out or moored yet so there is still a lot of activity to come. The wind has been having fun and I usually avoid going out in my kayak unless it calms down. Yesterday was just so beautiful that I put my kayak in the water anyway. I usually go all around the lake but I just stayed close to the shore and let the waves rock me as the wind pushed me around. It was different but change is good. The water feels cold to me and yet a woman has come the last two evenings to bathe and swim in it. My four mermaids have not started their morning journeys yet, but I know they are right around the corner. Both the hummingbird and the Baltimore Oriole showed up yesterday so I put out their feeders this morning before I sat down to write this newsletter. My son is coming over this morning to put in my screens and then I will be able to hear the birds and still keep the bugs out.
This article by Gillian Macbeth seems to fit right in to show our gratitude for Mother Nature. There are a lot of mind openings in this short note.

This video is quite the reminder of how difficult it is to set boundaries. Of course, it is easy with people we are not crazy about but to set boundaries with the ones we love is quite challenging.

This article really touched me and I don’t know who I am proudest of. The Math Teacher who took the time to help a fellow human or the man who was willing to be vulnerable in order to help his child. They are both heroes in my eyes and maybe someone will recognize the professor so he can be properly recognized. Help this go viral. I don’t know how to do that but I am sure you do.
A Gift for You to Share
Do you know someone you’d like to introduce to Richard Rohr or who is seeking freedom from negative thoughts and unhealthy attachments? Invite a friend to listen to one of Fr. Richard’s classic, introductory talks, “Emotional Sobriety,” by sharing this link: https://cac.org/emotional-sobriety-gift/ I had not heard this before and when I did, I was so amazed at the insights he presents and with humor too. What impressed me the most was how most of us have absorbed thoughts from others when we were too young to discriminate or understand….and we are still replaying them in our mind.
Love and Light
