“One candle gives light to another without itself ceasing to burn. The light which has been given to us burns all the brighter for being offered to others”
Michelle Slater

Fly Free!
Michelle told good stories, she would like this one;
“…Then I understood that when someone begins to tell you her story, you are entwined together. Perhaps even more so if the ending hasn’t been divulged. It was exactly like dreaming the same dream, then waking too soon and never finding out what happened. I watched leaves fall as the mourning prayers were recited. People here say that means a spirit is walking above you, in the trees, and that once a soul is free to join with them she can walk all the way to the world to come. That was a story I decided to believe.”
from The Marriage of Opposites (p 216) by Alice Hoffman

I think of her way with camera and words, bringing us into her NY life. demonstrating that kindness and caring are the way to live a life. I remember her exquisitely lovely fabric rose petaled pennant for I Dream of A World Where Love is the Answer…..I hope she knew that she was loved by so many…
(((Marti))) Michelle’s rose pennant and jade promise ring keep rippling with her deep love for our beautiful broken world
