Holy Saturday Reflections

Tomorrow Christians celebrate an empty tomb and their houses of worship should be empty too. Jesus said to love thy neighbor and staying home is one of those ways you can do that.

May humanity, kindness, love, peace, inclusion, patience, peace, kindness, and acceptance be resurrected on Easter.

However you may or may-not celebrate Easter may it be a time when your family can come together and be whole and renewed. May you find your spirit reborn and that life has new meaning.

You Are Essential This Friday

To all reading this you are essential to the people and places you love. Grace and peace to you all.

Being Serious As Of Late #Coronavirus

The world has changed a bit in the past few weeks. We are taking the Coronavirus seriously and our lives in the same manner. My posts have been reflective of the feelings many of us are having. In blogging content is king and my approach is to post when inspiration strikes and for me its several times a day.

It is my hope that you will continue to follow along despite the serious tones. For many of us blogging helps us make sense of life and to connect with the world. Thanks for your following and I hope I can be of help in some way to you. Service is something you take seriously.

Keep on blogging my friends. You have an audience looking for things to read and do.

Getting to that new point will take time and a whole lot of patience. The long haul isn’t going to be easy but it’s the best thing for all. It’s going to be hard and humanity is tough enough.
