Listen with Love

It’s been a long week or two for all of us. We’ve been changed by everything that we have seen and heard and felt. For most of us, we are wondering what each day will bring and what will be asked of us in response. This week I am taking up a challenge that I invite you into as well. I am going to listen more than I speak. Listen more than I react. Listen more before I pray.

Melancholy - it's a thing

Many of us are feeling it these days - a sadness, a grieving and looking for a way to be joyful again. For some this may be depression - when it lasts long, is intense and you can't climb out of it - this needs professional attention. For others it's grief and feeling the loss of our former lives. We were hit with something we had no way to prepare for and have learned along the way what it means to be hanging on for dear life - every minute of every day.
