Birthday!

Today is the anniversary of Mohandas Gandhi's birth, a day of reflection upon and gratitude for the work of this remarkable man:







Gandhi used the charkha not only as a tool and symbol for revolution, but also as an essential part of his meditation practice:




I will be marking the day by spinning on my charkha and celebrating birthdays in my own family, that of my sister, Annamarie and her daughter, Kaitlin.  I'm not sure if they remember that they share a birthdate with The Man Himself, but since the charkha is going with me to the party, I'll be sure to remind them!

Happy Birthday, AM and Kaitlin!
