I love this, Alan, and I was blown away by what Katherine wrote (her art really reflects her belief, too). I'm reminded of how the flapping of a butterfly wing ripples out over whole world in some way. We are all connected, and when a light goes on for you, it touches us all in some way.

This is very timely, Alan. Thank you. As I woke up this morning with no clear idea of how to deal with some massive systems that are being torn apart, it is heartening to read this phrase: The little moments are what we have, what we can grasp, and when I pay attention to them, I realize they are not little; they are our life rafts.

Indeed, Jane, life rafts. I love how you name them. Because that's how they feel to me.

Thank you for stating this so beautifully and clearly. Those little things are all around us and when we don’t get consumed by the swirling big drama, the little things appear as twinkling lights that can guide us home to ourselves.
