Each of us, you and I, are on a journey called life. And it is our job, our sacred task, to accompany and support one another, to carry each other's bags and burdens, to lighten one another's loads. We can do that with a word, a hug, by showing up even when no one asks, by answering the call. We can do that just be being good at what we do, loving and caring, open and whole-hearted. May each of us journey with God's protection in safety and in peace.
