As we approach another family gathering, we can bring our loved ones to the table with a picture, shared memories, reflections. They may not be physically with us but their presence is there is spirit. I had spoken with a woman who mentioned that they needed to cancel their Mother's Day photoshoot because their sibling would not be present due to their passing. I mentioned to her that that was not necessary, and they can be part of the picture by holding a photograph of them. She smiled and said she didn't think of that. There are many ways to make our loved ones part of our present; celebrate them as you celebrate each other when you are together, feel their presence. Reflect today on a favorite memory, write a poem or thought and share it at your family gathering; allow their memory to be present at the table. ~~ Blessings, Cammie
