“Life is a brief interval between birth and death.
May we celebrate the interval with joy;
May we sing the song that belongs to us;
May we act as if our very life depended on it.”
( one day at a time:)

Keep our sorrow from collapsing into self-pity.
Keep our hearts soft enough to keep breaking.
Keep our outrage turned toward justice, not curelty.
Remind us that all of this, every bit of it, is for love.
Keep us fiercely kind.
Amen.”
― Laura Jean Truman

everything is not every
possible thing
everything is only all
there is here and now
somewhen,
there will be more than there is.
you are not everything
but everything
could not be
everything without
you.”

May we carry joy into each new day, and practice hope even and especially in the midst of grief and uncertainty. May we have the courage to love, again and again and again, and may we love with the fierce determination our world and lives demand.
