But I couldn't help but think of you all when I found this...
This is taken from a site that linked to the Secret Lantern Society in Vancouver. Doesn't it look like a chalice? Not for this year, but how special would it be to set some luminaria out in the memorial garden circle for an optional post-service reflection time? or a little bonfire?Anyway, as stressed and worried and overwhelmed as we might all feel, take a breath, enjoy the energy of a lit flame, and the circle that holds us all together. We are in the crunch time, but less is more, like Andi said, it's about the feeling and expression, not so much the words and the finishing touches. It will be an amazing night!
Have a great week, She Sings!
whoa - so cool Heather - definitely something to keep in mind for next year and a welcome image of peace for our busy times!
ReplyDeleteI have a small fire pedestal that runs on a camp propane tank I could loan.
ReplyDeleteIt just occurred to me that I also have in storage a pedestal bowl that makes water mist that could be put in a corner of the room to give a little mystical feel and some moisture. Should I dig it out? Its blue and has a soft light inside.
I've taken sooooo many pills today. By Thurs I should be clear of any chance of spreading infection. We will see what kind of voice I have then.
