Now I don't believe in reincarnation; not at all, but after one particularly rough day, and asking for a sign, I looked out upon the snow-covered wood pile on our porch at the most vibrant male cardinal I had ever seen. It was a calming, but strange event because he remained there for a long time, and I felt an uncanny attachment to this red bird lingering on my porch. Raccoon? Cardinal? Meaning? Don't know. But, it calmed me on a very tough day and......well, that's all that counts. Right? Just getting through another day of laborious grief.<BR/>Love,<BR/>ColleenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
