Beautiful, Liz. Every bit of good we put out into the world has an impact, however small, and it all matters.

I think it’s important that we find unexpected ways in. I keep seeing things like, I don’t have time to go to Maher’s. That’s not our only option!

Each time you write you touch a chord in each of our hearts. Your truth is ours, too. And your gift is to remind us that we are not alone, we are not invisible. We are safe. We are strong. We making meaning.

To toil in the soil,

to make or to bake, to serve,

to delve in the soul.

To work ‘til we sweat,

to contribute our something,

and rest in the end.
