You do not belong to us. You belong to all the Buddhas and bodhisattvas. You belong to all sentient beings in this universe. We want to enable you to share your love and talents with others and the world. Similarly, we also belong to the world, and we will take the love we have for you and spread it to all living beings everywhere, because love is not something that is limited in quantity. By loving you and loving each other, we will learn how to love all other beings as well.

May you develop a kind heart in all that you do. May you realize the three principle aspects of the path--the determination to be free; the loving, compassionate bodhicitta; and the wisdom realizing reality. May you quickly attain enlightenment and be able to benefit all living beings.

May all sentient beings have happiness and its causes.
May all sentient beings be free of suffering and its causes.
Mall all sentient beings not be separated from sorrowless bliss.
May all sentient beings abide in equanimity, free of bias, attachment, and anger.

Warmest love,
Cate

Afternoon update: Kennedy is running a slight fever today and fluid is not draining like it should, so they had to put another drainage tube back in. I'll be heading up to see her in a couple hours. I just can't stand not being there with her.

They are saying that if she continues to do well, she may even be moved out of CVICU and into the nursery by Wednesday or Thursday. I'll try to get a pic of her and post tomorrow, she looks sooo much better without the ventilator tubes.

She seemed a little calmer when I was in there and just laid still for a bit, looking up at me and holding my finger tightly. I absolutely LOVE that precious girl more than words can possibly say. She's a fightin' lil' thing though...and that's a good thing.
