For this Sunday morning post I am offering a link to a poem by 20th century American poet Anne Sexton (1928-1974). This is for all of us who have likely spent far more time in our homes than we ever imagined possible. I personally am awaiting my second dose of vaccine and even though masks and social distancing (and yes, frequent hand washing) will still apply, I hope to soon have more adventures out in the larger community. This is something we can all aim for, for each other. We really don't know the future adventures that await us. We know the problems facing us, collectively and individually. If we remember to take the time for stillness, we find that space inside us which is sustaining us through winter, through the time of Covid-19, through the mistakes that are also a part of life and in their own way, often painful way, point us back to Truth. Today I invite you to welcome this Sunday to find peace and beauty and even the transcendent in what is right in front of you. (Susan Nettleton)
