'We're All Just Walking Each Other Home'
...sometimes in person
and sometimes
daily the 'Walking' may be by e-mail
or maybe

PSALMS OF MY SOULספירת העומר
TIFERET sh b'CHESED
Kabbalistic Sephirat HaOmer - day 3
"I HAVE DONE MY VERY BEST TO BE A FRIEND."
These are the words I just wrote on-line to Shoshana who lives in Israel. Shoshana, age 90, is a dear friend of our mutual friend. Shoshana uses computer, but our mutual 86 year old friend does not, so I write to Shoshana, my friend's friend, to tell her the ongoing surgical and medical news of our friend.
With my Tiferet, my love for friend, I have empathy and compassion. Empathy because I, too, have had similar surgery. Compassion as I would for anyone, and in Chesed because but this is a very dear friend of mine.
As Ram Dass said, "WE'RE ALL JUST WALKING EACH OTHER HOME."
In Chesed, in Lovingkindness, I try my best to be a friend, where friendship is needed, and has been requested. Sometimes there are imbalances, blockages, mitzrayims to cross in order to succeed in goals. I try to balance in Tiferet, in love the steps I need to succeed in being a friend during medical crises. It takes Tiferet, balance from me to get past blockages to help my friend.

My goal is to mindfully & Sephirotically examine mysef during each of 49 days of Counting the Omer,
and delete blemishes to purify in preparation going toward Shavuot.
It feels good to know and recognize that the compassionate action we share as friends,
is because we are created B'Tzelem Elokim, in the image of the Holy One.
"Love your neighbor as yourself" I AM the Eternal One." (Leviticus 19:18)
