@MsAlaineEYes I like that! I'm also surprised with the name Shiva used in a Jewish tradition.

@SW-UserI have done this; they also cover the mirrors, it is not a time for vanity. It keeps the atmosphere and vibration focused on the soul of the departed and their journey...Got from the web for you. The ritual is referred to as " sitting shiva " in English. The shiva period lasts for seven days following the burial. Following the initial period of despair and lamentation immediately after the death, shiva embraces a time when individuals discuss their loss and accept the comfort of others.

@Longpatrol sorry, I did not see it, this isn't a confessional (lol) but you can start working on it as you statement by sharing ONE WAY that you could show compassion; don't beat yourself up over what just happened...what will YOU make happen??? I have faith in you. 🤗

@TexChikExactly; especially if we know them well and they may have an issue in "being helped", many do. I had an opportunity to be part of a "paying it forward". At my local Aldi, getting groceries, the woman in front of me didn't have cash and left her card in the car, the young black woman behind me, stepped forward with her card and said "here, take this"...and the other woman thanked her and left. I saw that she was holding one item and so I told the cashier; please add hers to mine. It was cute. Both were the exact same amounts and I was "paying it forward" from another time. FULL CIRCLE.

[b]I like to return a shopping cart for someone to use at the store. One of my biggest pet peeves is when people who use them and never bother to return them to the cart carrol or back to the store. They just leave it in an empty parking space near them or worse in the lane where people are entering and exiting the parking lot. Lazy bone syndrome I call it. The majority of the time, when it's a busy day and there aren't any carts nearby for elderly people to use, it could be just a miracle for them to have someone like me strolling in returning a cart that they possibly need. 😎 [/b]
