Greetings from the
                  Editor:
                  I Watch With Expectancy for Today’s
                  Special Purpose
                  As always I am reminded that the higher
                  spiritual laws operate to put us in touch with people who can
                  help us or bring to us others who need our help. I really do
                  not have to look far to notice where to take my next step on
                  the everlasting journey of personal growth and expansion.
                  Neither do I have to worry that I need to do
                  "something" to make the world a better place. My
                  latest spiritual assignment found me, again.
                  A dear friend died several years ago and
                  left me in charge of a trust for her grown children. The
                  financial details are not why I am involved, it is clear to me
                  now. At this time her son needs my emotional support and help.
                  A relationship breakup has thrown him into a crisis. As I
                  write this column, I am choosing to call him daily to listen,
                  offer insights, and help him problem-solve what he needs to do
                  to move to a better place.
                  I invite you to pay attention to the small
                  assignments Life presents you, today.
                  Namaste,

                  I used to greet each day with an almost
                  naive anticipation of what wonderful things it might bring. I
                  experienced a lot of joy and laughter and of course, periods
                  of sadness and suffering in my life, but overall, I always
                  believed that I could handle everything that came my way, good
                  or bad.
                  That belief was shattered on the day that
                  changed my life. The most intense suffering I ever experienced
                  in my life started on September 3, 1999, when my husband,
                  Stan, and I were on our way from London, Ontario, Canada to
                  Detroit for a business meeting.
                  The sun was coming up and everything seemed
                  fine. It was a beautiful morning. We were traveling on Highway
                  401 when suddenly, unexpectedly, we saw this wall of fog in
                  front of us. As we entered it, Stan slammed on the breaks
                  almost immediately and we found ourselves sideways on the
                  highway...

                  Question: How can I best help my
                  daughter (and her husband) at this point in time? As
                  you'd understand I'm keen to impart some of my spiritual
                  wisdom to the situation but I don't know if that's
                  appropriate at this stage when she is so stressed and
                  physically unwell. I don't know if I would be just making the
                  situation worse when I share with her my soul thoughts about
                  what is going on and what there is to learn. It's difficult
                  because I see her trying to address the issues on a
                  superficial/physical plane level of awareness when I know that
                  I know her depression is soul based.
