    Just wanted to say that this article by ‘Spirit Teacher’ Jaime is the most poignant, profound, and poetic prose, praising the passage of the seasons I have ever had the pleasure to peruse.

    Deep in it’s understanding of the Ways of Life and the Great Turning of this World, it washes my soul in the bliss of becoming beautiful in the bountiful teachings of the Blessings of Spirit.

    Thank you, Master Jaime, for unfolding this wonderful, wise, and masterful message. It spoke the Truth as seen through the eyes of one who truly sees.
