Can we mend and heal?

We’re a new generation, but that’s not the significant thing. We have health and energy and freedom—and that’s not either. What’s deepest lies in our new opportunities and responsibilities. There is a larger picture. We are a part and can help form and frame. Can we get to beloved sacred blessed community? To what holds us together? Can we mend the earth, heal our anger, our orientation to Dollars and numbers?
