A PRAYER AMONG FRIENDS

This morning in our circle time we began with this prayer

Among other wonders of our lives, we are alive 

With one another, we walk here
In the light of an unlikely world
That isn’t ours for long.

May we spend generously
The time we are given.
May we enact our responsibilities
As thoroughly as we enjoy
Our pleasures.

May we see with clarity,
May we seek a vision
That serves all beings, may we honour
The mystery surpassing our sight.

And may we hold in our hands
The gift of good work
And bear it forth whole, as we
Were borne forth by a power we praise
To this one Earth,
this homeland of all we love.

We then shared our one minute presentations.

Each of us shared something of the unique and special human beings, create-ures that we are. Adjectives to describe ourselves, our characters; what we love, our passions, hobbies and interests; what makes us happy and; our hopes (and concerns) for this week and the future.

Its a wonderful day. Full of Energy and Joy. Again!
