		<description>Heather and others,
I returned to Soul Food today after a relatively long abscence.  My blog has a link that I have not pressed for ages.  Today though, as a very special friend's son lies in intensive care in a coma and today as a friend of my brother slipped away after a car / bike accident, i pressed the link and found others in similar situations.  Heather, you are an amazing woman. An incredible inspiration.  Your untiring devotion to a fantastic resource of writing inspiration is to be wondered at.  I hope that i can press my soul food link more often and that more and more times i can add to your wonderful world of the word.

		<description>You are in my thoughts and in my heart on this very difficult day. I am pleased that you were able to keep Darryl home with you and his loved ones and that you were with him when he transitioned. He is no longer in pain as he awaits the time when you two will be together again. A love like your does not die, it lives on forever.</description>

		<description>Heather, Beloved Sister of Spirit;

The words, wish, and tears are for you sweetie.  Holding you close to me in spirit, as I wish I could in person.

"All-Mother!!"  My voice was imperative and shaking.

"Yes my daughter?"  All-Mother's voice was ever calm and soothing.
"You know of my Sister Heather's loss.  I came to ask for an extra measure of comfort for her in the days ahead.

My spirit is with her now, so she will not feel alone.  My arms wish to hold her, and my shoulder to be where she leaves behind the weight of tears."

"I know  my Daughter. Comfort will be hers in abundance, and there will be shoulders everywhere to hold her and share the weight of sorrow with her."

"Thank you All-Mother, I will burn candles of green and white for out Heather, and play songs of both farewell and promises of meeting again."

Father of Man, lend your strength to our Heather, support her through the coming days.

Mother of Man, hold the spirit of Heather close in Your arms, safe within Your love, give all comfort and support she needs.

Amen, Namaste, and Blessed Be,
GwenGuin</description>

		<description>This site is so different from what I imagined. It is healing and comforting. It is strength and peace. It is a place to learn how to witness pain without accepting responsibility for curing it. It is a place of deep learning, and I'm honored to sit among those who have carved this temple of stone from their own experience.

		<description>Dearest Heather and Monika, this site is different. It is very, very special, and a tribute to both of you that from your own sorrows you have sprung such an inspiring well of compassion. Already it carries with it that awe usually associated with churches and temples. Your spirits are shing through. Peace and love and blessings on you both, and also on all who call in here to sit awhile. And yes I too would like to help you sound the drum roll of compassion, empathy, and kindness.</description>
