| Dear Community, This moment of Colorado’s gentle winter is nice. I like it. Just working on things in my quiet house, tending to the requests that land on my doorstep, and giving thanks for the beauties of life. That’s my immediate world. And, in the same breath, I am aware of the pains, struggles, illness, death, conflict and confusion in so many lives. Our human family is still trying to wake up, and our conscientious selves are trying to make sense, make peace, and offer blessings into the mayhem. I find it helpful to sing. It doesn’t make everything better, but it does fill my heart and body with vibrations of beauty and goodness. Please consider yourself warmly invited to join me in the prayerful atmosphere. Tomorrow, Saturday, January 27th – Interfaith Chant and Pray at Unity Church in Fort Collins (1401 W Vine) – 7 PM MST (2 AM Sunday UTC) – $15 to $30 suggested – come sing with us in person…or Zoom Here! – NOTE: there is a Yogananda celebration happening on the other side of the church at this time…you are welcome to hang out with the lovely Polestar folks on the West side…or join me on the East side.
