"Man can no longer live for himself alone. We must realize that all
life is valuable and that we are united to all life. From this knowledge comes
our spiritual relationship with the universe."
–– Albert Schweitzer
Kate’s Turn:
It seems as though there are no words for the amount of
suffering, tragedy, trauma and loss felt in our communities, our families, and
at times, in our own lives. Here
in the USA, I don’t know anyone who isn’t affected, if only by a small degree
of separation; we all know someone who suffers from the impact of natural
disasters, social or political challenges in their lives. How do we speak of creativity in this
light except to know that we MUST create a world that unites us in supporting
all life. We must weave a web of loving
connection. Love is how we repair the
garment of our destiny, for love is the greatest transformative energy we
have. Everything responds to love. Let us pray and send out our loving arms and hands to those who suffer –
create a world you want to live in.
"It
really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in
an inescapable network of mutuality, tied into a single garment of destiny.
Whatever affects one destiny, affects all indirectly." –– Martin Luther King, Jr
