Help! A call for your traditions, rituals, etc.

Sadly, no prizes or money are involved, so your only reward will be the warm feeling you get from helping a struggling writer with a new project.   I'd like to hear about any rituals or traditions  (personal/individual/group/family or ....) that have enriched or expanded your life or the lives of others.  Also, if someone gifted you with a creative act of service that has enhanced or deepened your life experience, I'd like you to share what you will about that, too.

Example 1:  A farewell ritual for a friend ... (and you'd share the details of that ritual).

Example 2:  I have a beach ritual that's becoming a tradition.  I think of people in my life who are suffering for whatever reason; I write their names in the sand and send healing love their way.  Sometimes I add the names of people who aren't suffering, too, and send thoughts of love.  It gives me a sense of peace to do this before setting out on my walk.

What you share need not be well written; spelling doesn't count.  Just as long as it's clear enough for me to "get it."  Details are welcome, so share as much as you'd like.  I will use only first names in this project, no other identifying information; your e-mail address will not be shared.

You can paste what you'd like to share in the body of an e-mail to: lucindashirley@yahoo.com.  Please put "Deeply Being" in the subject line.

It's my hope that sharing the things that deepen and enrich our lives will lead to the life enrichment for  others.  Great thanks for your help!
