I decided to turn toward a different way. Instead of focusing on the evil (and there’s plenty of it — and I’ve not shied away from it when necessary to note), I wanted to look for whatever was good, possible, lovely, truthful, and beautiful.

We sang this at Mass this Sunday, and it touched many of us, so I'm sharing it with you :)

We gathered this Epiphany to talk about what we want to take with us into this new year, what we want to leave behind, and when we might need to let go of our expectations and let a wandering star lead us in what may be a new and unexpected direction.
