Coping With Conflict All Around Us

July 25, 2016

We are overwhelmed at this time with conflict and suffering:  internationally and at home, political, racial, economic, environmental...and I have been silently observing and wondering how to address all this.  Today I read a thoughtful piece by David Spangler that offers some sage suggestions on how to cope with the onslaught, and I am moved to share his perspective with you.  Thank you, David.   The Spirit Amongst Us By David Spangler These are heart-heavy days. Nearly every day, the media bring us news of more suffering, more deaths, more anguish in the world.  One … [Read more...]

We Are All One

December 23, 2015

As we celebrate this season of holiday blessings, gratitude, and cheer, I want to share a story with you.

Score: Darkness 2, Light 1,000,000

April 19, 2013

I am a Bostonian. We have had a tough week here.  We suffered a violent act of darkness as two young men attacked us, killing 3, critically injuring and maiming scores of others, and attempting to shake our individual and communal senses of security and trust.
