All my life I have worshipped the sun. As a child my family lived in shacks without heat except for fireplaces and wood burning stoves. There were months of bone-chilling cold. At Easter, when the sun began to return, our relief was immense. We praised the risen Jesus, whom of course we admired, but we did not, as a family, thank the sun for returning to warm us. I think I instinctively thanked the sun because as a child the magic of the sun, warming us!, was obvious. I also understood that gratitude was prayer.  The prayer that Life hears. ~aw
