Dearest sister Ali,

This post moved me to tears, good ones, dear! I just feel such

closeness to you and feel you have such a kind heart. Many beliefs

speak of the ego, and I understand the difference here in your post,

my sweet friend. You are simply sharing, and I love you for that!

You are a person I look so forward to getting to know better. I also

look so forward to getting to know all of my brothers and sisters

here! Thank you for making my day so special! You are a beautiful

shining light in this world. Your words are so succinct and I feel I

am right there with you. You paint a picture of your loving

intentions for all and I feel blessed to " know " your sweet soul!

Thank you again!! Brightest Blessings, LUNA
