  • A single tropical green leaf against a white wall.

    Can we just sit here for a minute, Holy One? Some of us are carrying pretty heavy stuff. . . . . . And we could all use a moment of peace. To count our breath. To quiet the noise.

So many people in positions of public trust and responsibility have lost their authority and our confidence spectacularly. And...
