BOG POST--please do not rec. This is in lieu of a PM to my friends [View all]

This is very hard to write, but I need a break and it's been coming for some time.

Yesterday we found out that our son had a motorcycle accident 24 hours earlier. The good news is that only his tibia is broken and his ankle is injured. He walked away from the accident (ie called his wife) and finally went to the Urgent Care center 24 hours later. The bad news is he lost consciousness for a time -- in other words, a concussion. No, he hasn't had a CT scan. But 20 years ago when he was a teenager he had a head injury, so a mother's heart is ... well, you know. Please some good thoughts if you can.

Then I came to DU this morning, and it is what it is here. I need a break from this.

This is for you, for me, for everyone:

May all beings be peaceful
May all beings be happy
May all beings be safe
May all beings awaken to the light of their true nature
May all beings be free
