Tonight is All Hallows Eve, the night before All Hallows Day (All Saints Day). If this is the time when the veil is thinnest between this life and the other world, what is it we wish to carry back to our daily lives from the other? The people I consider "saints" are those who lived their own unique spiritual vision most truly and authentically, disregarding the distractions present in the society around them. Saints possess determination, discipline, perseverance, self-possession, and sensitivity to the Divine. It is these qualities I wish to absorb from those in "the other world" this day.
