Loved the sharing of YOUR moment.It's hard to enjoy others' happiness &when

we do, a beautiful universe opens up, that is beautiful every day if not every hour! I cannot go to the moon, or to Mongolia and Sweden, and Italy and Antartica and enter the dog-sled races, or rear horses, and organic fruits./...but I sure can share others' moments doing this. If I meditate as if every body is my body, every mariiage success is my success, every joy is also mine. That is the hard, private and personal work that makes the world beautiful (and peaceful, less selfish & greedy). Thanks for allowing this input/overflow MNEME! Shalom (will bring a flower soon) Neil

No, sugared but not saccharine ( or however you spell it).

A serene piece.

Mneme, I don't think this is saccharine at all. It's hard to convey love

without getting maudlin, I know, but this is beautifully and deftly handled: a touch here, a gesture there. Love like that, the understated, is sweet, but not saccharine.
