\"\"For death is but a passing phase of Life;<\/em>
\nA change of dress, a disrobing;<\/em>
\nA birth into the unborn again;<\/em>
\nA commencing where we ended;<\/em>
\nA starting where we stopped to rest;<\/em>
\nA crossroad of Eternity;<\/em>
\nA giving up of something, to possess all things.<\/em>
\nThe end of the unreal, the beginning of the real.<\/em><\/p>\n

~ Edwin Leibfreed, “The Song of the Soul”<\/em><\/p>\n

In celebration of a life well lived, this Kick in the Tush Club e-letter is dedicated to Harriet Taylor, my 96 year-young mother who peacefully and quite beautifully passed away on Saturday morning, January 19, in our home.<\/p>\n

She’d gotten a mammoth kick that I’d shared photos and videos of her on these pages and that her “Words of Cake Wisdom” video had received over 1,300 “hits” on YouTube.<\/p>\n

Her favorite quote (by Brendan Gill) was “Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.”<\/p>\n

With that in mind, I invite you to watch her best videos.
\nPlease do smile, laugh and cheer for a life fully, happily and authentically lived.<\/p>\n

Worth the click!!!
