The other day someone suggested that I place my mom in my heart. What a lovely, sacred place for her to be now. My job of making her happy is over and although she taught me much, I don’t have to keep thinking about all those lessons. They are there for me in my heart.
This placing people in my heart is prayerful. It removes them from my mind where judgments live, and places them in my heart, where love resides. And besides, it feels very satisfying and right to know that the people I am praying for are with my mom, who had an enormous heart, a heart that at end was too big, too full of love for her earthly life.
How light my shoulders and neck feel. Try it.
