RE: https://zeroes.ca/@broadwaybabyto/117250298769417299
Read the quoted toot below 👇🏻 and start to come to terms with the fact you, too, will become disabled at some point in time. If only, it will happen faster than you can ever imagine, accelerating the pace day in day out.
Oooh, and in case you're wondering, switch disabled for immigrant and apply the same. We're all bound to become disabled immigrants at some point.
It's a good time now to start learning some #empathy & #caregiving for others for when *you* may need help & support yourself.

The Weather of Our First Reaching
In the luminous space between mother and child, attachment becomes the first language of love — a silent exchange shaping how we trust, connect, and heal. This reflection explores the invisible architecture of early bonds, where psychology meets poetry and the heart learns its first rhythm of belonging.https://thereflectivemind9.wordpress.com/2026/06/18/the-weather-of-our-first-reaching/

Threads of Memory, Threads of Grace
Where nothing is done, yet nothing is undone.
Pause. Everything has been on pause, a hiatus to focus on more pressing matters at the present moment. I’m tired and rundown, but at the same time, I’m filled with energy to move forward, propelled by an unknown force to continue even in the most stressful moments.
If someone had told me what this year would bring, I wouldn’t have envisioned this would be how I’d handle things. It’s been a wild ride watching each moment unfold in my exhaustion. My patience may wane, yet there is a compassion behind the cloud of frustration, for this is life – a deeply mysterious and path-filled with suffering and craving.
Photo by Brett Sayles on Pexels.comI watch the veil of memory become clouded, in disarray, fleeting moments of fantasical, entangled thought dispelled by the light of the past as I guide awareness back to now through memory. I watch the partner’s frustration, fear, and anger arise, unable to cope with the reality of the moment.
My memories are also not precise. They often cloud the moment with judgment, diluting the magic of newness and casting shadows on my experiences, shaped by nostalgia, regret, or longing.
Yet love is unconditional and boundless, swaddling the loss, the hurt, the fear, and the pain, allowing a glimpse of the truth. The bigger picture, the heart of the matter, this entire journey, this life we live in, material trappings fettered away. In our most challenging moments, we discover our strength, understand hope, fully appreciate unconditional love, and know that this journey is rife with meaning.
There are moments when there is no longer separation between the doer and the deed, the actor and the act; it is all one. It is a miraculous dance of souls asleep to the true nature of being bound by karma, awakening slowly one by one, understanding the true nature of being in the meaning behind each moment. Moksha.
“Nothing is done, yet nothing remains undone.”
~Lao Tzu
I let go of the fleeting wisps of memory and touch the sacred, now unfurling with raw emotion, learning not to push away but to feel deeply the nuance, the realness, and the beauty of this life.

Born from personal experiences with memory loss, aging, and the emotional terrain of familial strain, this reflection explores how we hold space—for others and ourselves—when love is complicated and care is not always gentle.#aging #awakening #awareness #balance #caregiving #elderCare #experience #flow #healing #journey #lifePath #meditation #memory #memoryAndMeanign #memoryCare #mindful #mindfulness #moments #nonduality #poeticMeditaiton #practice #reflection #reflectiveEssay #spiritualWriting #traumaAndTenderness

If you are in the Palm Desert area on March 28, please consider coming to the Joslyn Center where I'll be talking about #Alzheimer's: #Grief, #Guilt, #Memory, and #love. I will discuss the many years it took to get the diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer's, his suffering, our pain, what I wish I knew when he was sick, & the importance of sharing our experiences.
