The Beauty of Tears Offered As Praise
Kathi Pelton Last night my husband and I sat with four young people that we love deeply. A couple of them were experiencing profound pain, so we put aside the night’s “agenda” and we sat with them, held their hands, held them and then all six of us began to weep together. We wept with…

“I Felt A Disturbance In The Force”
Kathi Pelton Our family has been having such a beautiful holiday season but yesterday something felt “off” from the beginning of the day.
