Warmth
The warmth is not just in the temperature swings we live with; but also in the ways in which we see each other, work with one another, care for others as part of caring for ourselves.
As Anticipated
We are not objects which, if place in a particular set of conditions, will act predictably 100% of the time.
Ease
This is something that should always be remembered - what you see is not the whole story.
Take a Leap
That is one of the miracles of being born a human being - a little voice that says, "Impossible? Well let's see about that."
Dream Now
Yes, there are those dreams that turn into nightmares - this too is a part of how it is: there are both welcome and unwelcome events that happen in life.
What if…
What if we could have known how to prevent the damage and how to build something that would nurture rather than nullify life itself?
Reflection
Having the capacity to take the imperfect in life and turn it into perfection for that moment - is like performing magic.

This was a sacred moment in which those gathered could gain a deeper understanding of our role in connection to all that is yet to be.

Almost didn't do it - but then, something said, "Make the space.".
Steady
In daily, ordinary life one knows that there are people and places that are moving in concert with one another to ensure that we don't lose our collective balance
Blue
No matter what else may be happening in the world, there is a place where confusion and imbalance can be set aside. The color blue matches the mood.
Sukkot
And this image, a memory of a time of joy, hope, and friendship under the beautiful sukkot built by our friends to mark this moment of thanks.
Knees
In such times, there are no words that can be uttered when lives are lost as a result of individual and institutional insanity.
Deep Knowing
Where do people have a place to rest their spirit in times of great distress and anxiety?
Layers
One tries to find peace where and how one can. There really are no words that will answer the questions about how people live (and die).
Melodies and Songs
It was supposed to be a year of hope, peace, and gentle shifts. The energy however, has been quite the opposite. It's been jarring.
Unseen
His presence was steady, quiet, and reliable. His warmth was the same for everyone.
Dive In
These are the times in which one's faith in humanity gets tested - it is easy to have hope when all is well; it is times like this that allow for tenacity to be tested.
Movement
"It's not a cult, sect, religion - it's a movement." This was the response to a comment made to a teacher dedicated to helping people wake up - long before the movement that coined the word, "Woke.".
