Even before opening my eyes. I could tell that the sun was clearly bright and on duty for the day. It was the morning after a wonderful week.end with family and friends and fun Mother's Day celebrations. God seemed to have painted the days with extra love. light and laughter. We also enjoyed the spectacular weather. CINDY TRANE CHRISTESON "Maybe God wanted Mother's Day to be beautiful because mothers are so special,-J heard a woman say to her friend as I walk.ed by them at a nearby park. Mothers are special, but everyone is special to God. Besides. far more mothers live where the climate was not ideaJ on Mother's Day, or many days of the year, but God doesn't lave them any less. I talk.ed to some friends for whom Mother's Day and other holidays are painful times, because of loss of life of loved ones or strained relationships with family members. Unfortunately. those are days when it seems that the colors of life ran together and left a mix of muddy brown. I tallced to a woman before Mother's Day who said that although she had a great relationship with her mother when she was alive, she had strained relationships with her siblings after her mother passed away. She wanted to do something to reconnect with them. but didn't knoy.' how. ·we always had fun together when we were young, -my friend said. ·1 can't even remember what led to the distance between us years ago, but I think it's time to ask God to · bring some of his love, and hopefully healing to the rest of our family. I really think this could be our year,· she said with a new spark in her voice. I talked with that friend again after Mother's Day. She ~d that she prayed for God's wisdom about her siblings, and one anSwt!r came through an old photo album. •My heart started softening, and l laughed and cried at the pictures of some of our silly parades and art shows", she said. She also began writing lerters to her brothers and sisters and plans to mail them soon. •tr we're able to get together, we'll have to have another parade or art show,· she said excitedly. ''l'U be sure our children are there or involved and that someone takes pictures or videos." Relationships require many different attitudes and actions. If we were artists, some of the colors we would need to add Lo paint over past pain and minimize futures hurts are forgiveness, grace. honesty, humility and love. These are the very thin~ God offers to us as individuals every day. These are also the very things he is more than happy to help us extend to others when we ask him to be pan of the process. God can take any mix of colors in our lives and rum them into something truJy and deeply beautiful And you can quote me on that • CfNDV TRANE CHRISTESON is a Newport Beadl resident Who speaks frequently to parenting groups.

A few weeks ago, my husband, Michael, and I created a three-day weekend so we could make a short road trip to Yosemite and stay there for a couple of days. On the way up to the national park. we stopped to relish the wildflowers near Gorman. We missed the peak of the season, bur we would have never known lf someone hadn't later told us. A blank.et of deep blue lupine and paJe blue gilia. creamy-white tidy tips and cream cups, pwple owls clover, orange California poppies and golden coreopsis covered the hills of the Tejon Pass as profusely as Oowers on any Rose Bowl Parade float. The grasses were beginning to brown, it was true, but stepping into those fields was like stepping into a 3-D impressionistic landscape born from the brushes of a painter Ii.Ice Georges Seurat or, as it seemed, straight from the hands of God. The flowers, lighted by the mo rning sun, swayed in a gentle breeze. I could have sworn they were singing from Psalm 96. MSing to the /,ord, al/ the eanh.

We were blessed over the days with every kind of weather, rain, sun, hail and 'snow, and with the company or many members or our family. We hi.Iced to waterfalls and rock r~ and lakes and giant Sequoias Ooclced with new snow. We marveled at the beauty of the earth. little could have made the trek any better.

'8. 1949183M129 the pleasant spell of a pastoral time-out came to an end quite abruptly. A dog had wandered up an onramp onto busy Highway 41, right where it meets Highway 99. My husband. like a number of other drivers, came to a stop to avoid hitting it. Our car stopped inches short of the pankked creature. For a moment, the animal froze and his doe-like, bewildered eyes met mine before he bolted. In the next moment, our car heaved forwarded under a power not its own. The driver or the car behind us never noticed the stopped and slowing traffic. Her car hit ours. Another car hit the dog. We weren't hurt, and neither was the driver of the car that hlt ours or her passenger, thank God. But the vacaUon's luster was clearly tarnished, and we had hundreds of miles to drive home in our limping sed an. We rolled along for many miles, and I could have sworn all the sound had been sucked out o f the world. When bad things happen , my knee-jerk reacUon is to insist that God explain just exactly why.

Costa Mesa City Council. I do not know anything about his politics, but I hope he will be open and fair-minded in his council decisions. Eric Bever, by his heroic actions at the special council meeting, has set the height of the bar for which all of the council mem- bers should strive to achieve, setting aside personal interests for the good of the com - muni.ty. It will be a tough job, Mr. Scheafer, but based o n the public comments regarding your integrity, I believe you will be an asset lo the council and the city. JUDITH BERRY Costa Mesa Rarely has so much been done by so small an action Kudos to Eric Bever. His decision to with- . draw from consideration as a prospective council member graphically established for all to see his "improver" credentiaJs. His withdrawal improved the council, im- proved the city's bank account and im- proved my mood. Seldom in my memory has anyone had such a positive effect on the city by not participating. CHUCK CASSITY Costa Mesa Bever's withdrawal showed he was the best choice I lindsight to the council appointment from a chaise lounge council member. I don't believe Eric Bever's decision to withdraw from the council race was spon- taneous. The way I saw the s ituation un- folding was that the council was about five minutes away from a special election. Bev- er noticed this action being taken by the council and made the b est decision for the city. It was unfortunate that the Bever's supporters on council did not make an- other attempt to propose Bever at this time or call for a break. J would have to think that Councilwoman Libby Cowan would have noticed that Bever's action was be~t MAILBAG . FILE PHOTO I DAJLV PILOT Mike Scheafer was appointed to replace Karen Robinson on the Costa Mesa City Council. He is an insurance agent and the secretary of the Lions Club in Costa Mesa. for the city and with that he just proved to be the person for the job. Thank you, Eric Bever. LEN BOSE Costa Mesa Bever deserves thanks for making his decision Regarding Karen Robinson's replacement on the Costa Mesa City Council. I regret that we had to lose Robinson. Frankly, I think she could have done both her job as a county judge and as a council woman well Now with Eric Rever stepping aside, we need to congratulate Mike Scheafer and encourage him not to forget the Westside, as most h ave. We hope when Schea fer says he will look out for the entire city of Costa Mesa, he will not disrega rd the Westside with it!> daily deterioration 10 where•it is h ecoming catastrophic for some. l3ever has alway::. impressed me as some- one who would serve Costa Mesa wisely. He understands how crucial it ha'i become for the Westside. Bever has known the facts. I le'5 offered his time, ~hared his con- cerns. done his ho mework and proved himself to the entire city by stepping aside I thus avoiding! the $95,000 cost of a special election. Costa Mesa wimprovers" thank Bever for hi!. support. Without a doubt, it woul<l have been an h onor to have him as a council- man. Bever would have proven to h e an as- set benefiting the entire city. We hope Bev- er will con sider ~erving at a no ther time.
