UUCGT FLASH NEWSLETTER

Yet, we often act as though all the feelings and ideas we have are fixed - burdens we can't set down. Hanging on to negative stories about ourselves and others, or what we think must happen, adds to our collective suffering.

The freshness of Spring reminds us to lighten our hearts and offer our sweetness to others.

Like the morning dew, or the tenderest shoots and buds slowly peeking out, we can allow a smile to sit lightly on our lips.

Like flowers, each of us is a beautiful expression of our creative, living Earth.

Offering your freshness to another being is a beautiful gift!
