In Unity, I Remember.
Though we all lead individual lives and have different priorities, certain dates on the calendar represent anniversaries of loss or celebration that are marked communally. On such days, I can feel drawn to others or find myself performing kind acts that may bring a smile to someone’s face. Instead of pushing these feelings aside, I lean into them— appreciating and embracing the experience of unity they bring, connecting me with the rest of humanity. I pause to remember the reasons for celebration or lessons learned in loss. As I honor the legacy of all those who came before me, I join in the consciousness of oneness with all people.
I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.—John 17:23
