We come together with purpose

Whether or not we know what that purpose is

Someone, or something, brought us here—for which we are grateful

Perhaps we come seeking solace

or we are weary of solitude

Perhaps we come seeking justice

and we are weary of pain

Perhaps we come seeking joy

or because we want to share our joy with others

Whatever brought us here, let us be fully here, fully ourselves, and fully alive.

Let us open our hearts, our minds, and our hands to what may come.
