Moments of grace

This week has been sad and glorious. I have grown as a person, and I'm still grappling with everything I've learned.

Yesterday [livejournal.com profile] catpaw67, [livejournal.com profile] ludditeauthor, [livejournal.com profile] mage_imbroglio and I facilitated a tiny cremation service for Isaac, Phaedra and a few family members. It was so beautiful that it almost broke my heart. I am grateful that we were able to witness the passing of a truly great man and act as his honor guard!

While I am honored, I am also rather shocked that the task fell to us, and that we were entrusted with the care of Phaedra's lovely, kind heart in these fragile moments. Part of me asks, "Who are we that this should be so?"

I think the answer is this: we are representatives of a tremendous number of people who are grateful to Isaac and Phaedra, and whose lives have been graced---and shaped---by their work.

Blessed Be.

Thank you
