“Spirit meets us in the commons of life.”

I wrote that in 2018.

This morning I pulled up the definition for commons:

  1. a dining hall in a residential school or college
  2. land or resources belonging to or affecting the whole of a community

Did you see what Pope Francis recently said? “Vaccination is a simple but profound way of promoting the common good and caring for each other, especially the most vulnerable.”

If you’re reading this and you’ve hesitated to get the vaccine, would you reconsider your decision?

“I began to silence one half of the war within me, the duel between antiracism and assimilation… and started embracing the struggle toward a single consciousness of antiracism.” —Ibram X. Kendi, How To Be An Antiracist, p. 149

“Seven Years of Wonder” is a daily look back at my creative journaling posts since 2014. I began this journey on Feb. 11, 2021, and hope to continue through Feb. 10, 2022. What am I learning about my art and faith journey thus far? What has remained constant? Where have I been changed? How is this impacting present and future art-making?

A deep bow of gratitude to you for keeping me company on this journey.
