the real that remains

Dear Friends, 
Is it fun, the way life kicks into high gear and starts running, running, running…and you can either grab onto the coattails, or hang off the back bumper, or draw the blinds and take a nap (good to have options, eh!). 
I’m feeling like a bit of a yo-yo, raring to go, digging in my heels, humming along with delight, holding up in resistance. This humanness. Such an adventure! 

Tomorrow, Saturday, April 13th is our monthly Universal Worship Service Chant – 7 PM Mountain Daylight (1 AM Sunday UTC) – We’ll be celebrating themes of “wonderment and praise” in a variety of faith traditions, with music, prayer, candle-lighting, and scriptural gems. – You can join us on Zoom Here!  – OR – RSVP if you want to join me in my home. For real. Tell me if you’re coming so I can have enough copies of prayers and lyrics for you. 

Monday, April 15th – Sufi Meditation – 9:30 AM Mountain (3:30 PM UTC) – RSVP if you want to join me in my home…or Zoom Here!
