At this moment, millions in our country are without power, electricity, heat, or running water. I feel for my brothers and sisters who are struggling right now, if far away. I have experienced such things myself, which heightens my compassion.
We have just entered the Lenten season. While giving up certain pleasures for Lent, perhaps we will find a way to send those things to those in need. Physically sending off our extra blankets, warm clothes, packaged food items may be more in keeping with the spirit of Lent than giving up meat, sugar or any other indulgence.
Are your basic needs met? Do you have your creature comforts? Ki to Happiness is grateful for all involved in keeping me warm, safe, and well fed.
