A Virgin A Day ~ Twelve Days With Mary ~ Day 2

DECEMBER 2, 2013

While walking this morning...
thinking about today's post,
this song from my youth
poured into my memory...

**When I find myself in times of trouble**
**Mother Mary comes to me**
**Speaking words of wisdom, let it be**
**And in my hour of darkness**
**She is standing right in front of me**
**Speaking words of wisdom, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Whisper words of wisdom, let it be**

**And when the broken hearted people**
**Living in the world agree**
**There will be an answer, let it be**
**For though they may be parted**
**There is still a chance that they will see**
**There will be an answer, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Yeah there will be an answer, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Whisper words of wisdom, let it be**

**Let it be, let it be**
**Ah let it be, yeah let it be**
**Whisper words of wisdom, let it be**
**And when the night is cloudy**
**There is still a light that shines on me**
**Shine on until tomorrow, let it be**
**I wake up to the sound of music,**
**Mother Mary comes to me**
**Speaking words of wisdom, let it be**
**Yeah let it be, let it be**
**Let it be, yeah let it be**
**Oh there will be an answer, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Let it be, yeah let it be**
**Oh there will be an answer, let it be**
**Let it be, let it be**
**Ah let it be, yeah let it be**
**Whisper words of wisdom, let it be**

-The Beatles 1970

This was all before I learned of the death later today
of one of my dearest blogging friends,
the beautiful Joe Spado,
also known as Spadoman.

I can hear you Joe...
you are smiling and laughing
and riding the wind...
Maggie and Gene,
the others who have gone before,
and the sacred mother of us all...
are welcoming you with open arms and hearts.
Thank you for gracing my life Joe,
for bringing me back into the sacred circle,
for sharing your beauty with us all.
God-speed my friend.

Come celebrate these twelve special days
of honoring the sacred mother,
of loving Lupita,
by visiting Rebecca and others
