A week ago today, it was warm and sunny. We went to an MNDA meeting at Katharine House Hospice, in Adderbury, north of Oxford. It's a peaceful place, set on the edge of the town. While there, we wandered down to the simple chapel. Jane showed me a card there. It read:
"I believe in the sun even when it is not shining.
I believe in love even when I cannot feel it.
I believe in God even when he's silent.
Written on a wall in Cologne, by a Jewish prisoner of war". Somewhere I read it was found scrawled on a cellar wall where Jews had hidden in World War 2. Anyway, I liked it. Today it's overcast and freezing, difficult to believe the crocuses were fully open in the sun a week ago! But they were!
A new website was launched on Sunday, by an American hospice chaplain named Alice Tremaine. It's called "
Prayers for Health, Spiritual resources for health and wellness". It's both beautiful, and positive, and helpful - and somewhere there's a link to this blog. I would recommend it anyway!
