miracles ahead

It’s happening again. Our world around us is closing.

We’re really tired. We’ve worked, vigilantly, to adapt and find new practices. So many of us have forged the pathways to help others, and be there for sisters and brothers that we’ve never met.

Yet, for many of us, we’re called once again to hunker down. And this is amidst the special time of year that we’ve ritually set aside to celebrate one another.

We’re not traveling this year, not like we would have. Resilient as ever, we’re adapting, again.

We wish we could be together to celebrate—but nature is asking us to reconsider our path. There’s miracles ahead, but for this moment, our patience is ever more precious. 

Nature, we humbly oblige—as we’re only a small fraction of your unfolding grand plan.
