To my husband, Kenni, and my children, Aiden and Mariah, for all of their patience, love, and support.

nce again it is time for the annual family reunion. For generations, every summer, the family that now spreads out over twelve states meets in a different location to visit, celebrate, and catch up everyone's news. For the past several years the family has asked Scott to choose the date and location for the reunion. He seems to have a special knack for finding the right place and time to get together. Ever since he took over this responsibility, plans have run smoothly.

Scott loves numbers. He is a computer software developer and part-time numerology enthusiast. He pays attention to the patterns and coincidences of certain numbers that emerge throughout his personal and work-related affairs. His interest in numerology began when he started noticing the number four appearing in clusters of three throughout his day, including in phone numbers, on the speedometer of his car, and in confirmation and registration numbers. He often wakes in the early morning to see the same sequence 4:44 on his digital clock. When he sees this series of numbers, he feels confident that he is being guided and that he's on the right track.

When Scott makes plans for the family reunion, he looks for this sequence of fours. He looks at the dates for the event, its location on the map, the addresses of possible hotels and parks, and then he looks for the number four. When the number four emerges in his search for the perfect date and location for the family reunion, Scott takes note. When a sequence of three fours emerges, he closes his eyes and visualizes the location. If his perception of this image has the right energy and brightness, then he feels confident in making plans.

Scott knows that the number four represents practicality. "This is perfect," he thinks, `7 am a practical man"

Liza folds her shirts and pants and places them neatly in her suitcase. She has not been to a family reunion for a few years, and she is looking forward to seeing her brother's new baby girl and visiting with the other more distant relatives that she knows will be attending this year. She will miss the family matriarch, her grandmother Eleanor who died last fall. Grand mother Eleanor had kept the peace in the family for years. There had been an ongoing rift in the family caused by a longstanding financial misunderstanding between her two aunts. Now with Grandmother Eleanor no longer alive, Liza wonders if the precarious peace between the two women will be broken during the reunion.

Liza, thinking of her aunts and the potential tension between the two of them, closes her eyes and imagines them facing one another. She feels the conflict and stress between them as she takes a deep breath and focuses on her love for both of them. Liza imagines sending this love to her aunts, and she continues to feel warmth, affection, and peace surrounding them. Liza has found that when she feels anxious about her children or her husband, this loving meditation soothes her nerves and helps to ease the burdens or stresses that her family may be feeling. She thinks to herself that each day leading up to the reunion she will take a few minutes and send love and harmony to her aunts.

Bill rises at dawn every morning. He likes to start work early while the day is still cool. After a short drive through a thick grove of cedar and pine trees, he enters the park gates and surveys the grounds. The good weather has brought more people than normal this year to the park. Soon he knows that the laughter of children playing in the clear river and green fields and the smell of grilled hamburgers will overtake the quiet peacefulness of the morning. Bill imagines his ancestors, proud Cherokees who once lived on this land, enjoying the happiness that still permeates the hills. Bill chose to work at the park for this reason. He feels closer to his people and to his heritage just knowing that their spirits still reside here, undisturbed by the bulldozers and construction that has overtaken much of the surrounding area.

Bill walks slowly to the river and notices a hawk perched on a tree close to the water's edge. Bill then faces the four directions one by one north, south, east, and west and as he does this, he asks for the blessing of the Great Spirit. He takes a moment to thank the Great Spirit for the contentment that he has found in his life. He then heads toward the groundskeeping shed to take out the lawn mower and clippers, passing under the large picnic pavilion on his way. He remembers that there is a large family reunion that will soon fill the empty space. He thinks of his own family the babies, the young people making their way into the world, and the elders proud of the accomplishments and the timeless love they share. He feels the connection of family and love.

Bill reaches into his pocket and feels his well-worn leather pouch filled with cedar and tobacco leaves. He carries this with him wherever he goes, always aware that an opportunity for a prayer and request for blessings from the Great Spirit might present itself. It now feels like such a time, so again he faces the four directions the north, south, east, and west. He chants a prayer and offers tobacco to the ancestors and the spirits of the hills, requesting blessings of peace, harmony, and love for the family that will soon fill this pavilion.
