From the very beginning we have relied on soldiers, to protect us, to protect our democracy, and to fight tyranny.
A great big thank you to all our men and women in the Armed Forces! And to those who have served already!
God bless you, we are so grateful to you!
Happy Veterans Day!

Encouragement that day came for him
in the form of a white sailboat
heading into the wind
refusing to let go of its power,
leaning into the horizon
as if hope was the journey,
and strength
the destination.

Quietly we remember November as a month of turning
to that inner life
bringing us closer to the Earth
and each other.

The strength of our wing, the power
of our words
always depends
on the heart,
the freedom
within.

In autumn there is not only the glory of leaves
but the harvest
the drawing in
and bringing together,
the closeness of love.
A lifesong
sung so wonderfully.

A quiet in the pine trees today brought light,
a silence that said,
“Peace be still…..”
removing my filters,
removing my noise,
I could see clearly
there is a One
that made us all.

In the sacred of silence where we can listen to the peace flow
through our spirits, in our veins
and our heartsongs building
an even better healing……
we are stronger
and made free.
