Real Astrology ...
for people who take their lives seriously!

I snuggled beside Emma to say our nightly prayer. It is a treasured part of the day for both of us, this winding-down time where we are together heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul and I hold her sweet little self in my arms.

It's similar and different every night as I sing praises of Gratitude to God for all of the wonderful details of Emma, thanking the Creator for her elbows and her eyelashes, her singing voice and her sense of humor, her forthrightness and her brown hair.

It wasn't always like this. Emma didn't used to want to pray at all. We transformed what used to be "I don't want to pray" to "Hey! Don't forget my prayer!"

We have turned prayer into a time of laughter, a time of sharing, a time of joy and peace even if the moment before prayer time is rocky or filled with an emotional outburst, the prayer of gratitude and its healing, joyful energy fills our hearts and spirits with songs of laughter before we separate from one another through sleep.

The last line of the prayer is always the same. "Most of all, thank you for giving Emma to me to raise " thank you for giving me my very special little girl."

Last week was exceptionally tiring. It was Tech Week: both Katherine and Emma appeared in the Bakersfield Community Theatre Variety Show. It meant more late nights and more over-tiredness at the end of the day from each of us.

The grand finale of Emma's grace filled prayer came on night and I thought to myself, "It sure would be nice to have some one cuddle with me every night and express Gratitude to the Creator for my elbows and my toes and my speaking voice and my laughter."

My slightly disgruntled whiny state was short lived because the answer I heard was immediate.

"So be it."

Oh, yes " that's true.

I can be the one to thank the Creator, every day and every night, for all the special-and-yes-the ordinary parts that make me especially me.

I laugh even now, thinking of the reckless abandon I can offer giving the final line, "Most of all, God, thank YOU for making ME -- ME!"

My intent with Emma's prayer is for her to see her wonderfulness in a mirror "held up" by me through words of thanksgiving night after night after night. I certainly can choose to do the very same for myself. I can figuratively and truly hold the mirror up and give thanksgiving for the handiwork of the Creator.

With that attitude and intention, it makes the prayer simultaneously so simple and so profound. I can hold the attention, awareness and concentration on the Creation: Me. You can hold the attention, the awareness and the concentration on the Creation: You.

Did I just hear laughter springing from your belly?

Did I heard a sigh of resignation and a thought somewhere along the lines of "Grateful for my elbows? I don't see it." The clouds are still there, still blocking the knowledge that what you are being grateful for is the handiwork of the Divine -- that handiwork that is made manifest in you.

Victor Hugo said, "Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face." As silly as it sounds, it will make a difference to speak gratitude for the seemingly small, insignificant slices of your being -- your eyebrows, your freckles, the bridge of your nose -- and in time and practice you will looking forward to that special time of day when you hold up the mirror to yourself and intone a delighted list and close with the sacred words:

"Most of all, God, thank YOU for making ME " ME!"
