Tonight I sat on the front porch.
Just watching.
Until all I could see
Was the outline of the trees
Against the night sky.
Doing my best to find my way.

Several things I believe:
The most critical religious question of our day is how we will answer the question "Who is my neighbor?"
That which we know and name as God is more about the connections between us than something above us.
And this, from the poet Maya Angelou...
"Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better."
