Crane Mountain

It has been a difficult week.

I cannot decide if I am just tired, don't feel well, 

or does my attitude  suck?

Example:

Larry "had" to say something to our unkind neighbor, Gladys Kravitz...

Our granddaughters' dog is struggling with cancer,

 the pharmacy is waiting for me to get my vaccines today (at 11:15)

and

I just feel tired.

Yesterday the image below popped up on my Instagram feed.

I do not know who posted it but it meant the world to me.

I am going to print it up and  keep it here at my desk.

Needless to say, I need the reminder.

I don't know if you need the reminder too, but I thought that I would share it.

A few weeks ago while at Michaels, out of the blue, I asked the manager where the origami paper was. I bought a packet and taught myself how to make an origami crane. It took a few days before I perfected the crane...and now I have over 100 of them.

Different Asian cultures have different meanings for the cranes.

I cannot decide how I feel about their meaning.

Each morning, I make at least one crane during my devotional time. Sometimes I make 4.

There is a saying that if someone is committed enough to make 1,000 origami cranes, they will have a wish granted.

I do not need any wishes granted.

 But I  know that each morning, while I fold each crane,

my meditation is for different people in my life.

I wish them to be happy, healthy and content 

as their life journey continues.

I put the cranes in a vase. It is full and overflowing now.

Larry calls it "Crane Mountain"

Who knows, you might be the person I am 

thinking of, while making a crane.

I have a question for the universe:

I wonder if my crane passion/obsession will end as quickly as it began?

Secret: (I hope not) It fills me with joy....

Please have the best day.

Love you beyond the moon.
