I was jolted awake from a perfectly deep sleep yesterday morning.

What was Peggy's high for March?  Why couldn't I remember anybody's low?  And what about parenting lessons from Kate or life lessons from Robin?  I look forward to hearing about the lives of those dwelling in the House of Shine, so how our monthly ritual escaped me, I am not quite sure.  .

How it also escaped each of you, I am not sure either.

Reflection is part of shining.  It means that periodically you are willing to bow out of the rat race long enough to think about how successfully you are constructing the life you want.  It might also mean carving out time to be grateful for what you have while giving serious consideration to those things you still want.  

Normally, the 18th of each month is when we agree to stop what we are doing (celebrating, shining, crafting, baking), so that we may reflect on highs, lows, and ahas since sharing last. 

Highs represent the best things that have happened in the past month.

Lows are the worst things.

And, ahas are things we have learned over the past month.
