[Thespiritexpress] Fwd: Fall Equinox Blessings from Tomas~

[Lydia Ruby Shepard]

Yes, and Happy Equinox to all.  I love all I read here.  What I like in particular is how much sense it makes to go within and without to examine what no longer serves me—I don’t think I have taken the time and space to do that.  Hugs, and many thanks to each of you.  Lydia.

    Thanks to the wise elders and the stars!!
    
    Happy Equinox!
