Jalál (Glory), 19 Sharaf (Honor) 176 B.E. - Saturday, January 18, 2020
PROMPT January 18th It’s Show and Tell Day here at the 30DBC! Think of an item that is special to you (it may help if you are able to see your chosen item while you write your entry). Describe it in as much detail as possible. Then, tell us its story. How did it come to be in your life and what makes it important to you? Ever since Thursday, November 29, 2012, (the day my Mother died) I've been learning to let go and downsizing my stuff. It's difficult because I came from a long line of people who keep things for one reason or another. I have a few more things to let go, which will happen in 2020 and 2021 (with most of the stuff anyway). There are a few things I can't let go of, such as the picture of 'Abdu'l-Baha that Mom kept on her night stand and her prayer beads. Prayer Beads Ninety-Five translucent rose pink prayer beads, wait for morning, wait for me to intone "Alláh-u-Abhá!" ==“God the All-Glorious!” Ninety-Five prayer beads-- that originally belonged to my Mother-- anchor my day to Baha'u'llah. I know Mama waits in the Abha Paradise to greet me when I walk through the door to eternal life. |
