Friends of the Sacred Braid and readers of THE ALMOND TREE,
thank you for being a blessing to me through your continued support, comments, companionship, encouragement, and generosity.

May the star of wonder catch your eye, hold your attention, point you in the way of life, and guide you to the peace that sustains, the awe that leads to wisdom, the people who help you to grow, the love that evokes love, the mercy that makes us one, and the joy that no hardship can destroy. ~ Dan

GLORY TO GOD in the highest and peace to all creatures on earth!
