Rising Hope ￨ Be the Light

At times it feels like we’re living in a moment of overwhelming dissension; a time where many are choosing greed and hate over generosity and love. But is that the whole story? This past weekend, we saw millions of people rise up across America. We even watched supporters in other nations join the cause. This fierce illustration of resistance was fueled not only be outrage, but also by love and hope; hope for a more just and compassionate future for all. This is the hope that we need to hold onto. Darkness may be present, but so is light. As we sink deeper into our spiritual practices, let us be reminded of the energy we bring to each and every moment. Together, may we become the light we wish to see in the world.
