Let us speak...

May we be
fulfilled with the great joys and sorrows that have gone before us,
May we
remember those days gone by… as a time of wonder, a time of love and
prosperity.
May our
histories which reside in the archives of our memory, be accessed when needed,
May these
treasures which is more precious than gold and silver…. Be in abundance.
May this
sanctuary host hidden secrets that can transfigure the now.
May our eyes
that have gazed upon the past illuminate our present…
May we be
blessed to go into our deepest chambers…where the deep self-resides…. full of
knowing and truth,
May we be
blessed in the stillness to know the history of ourselves,
Our dreams
and promises….
May we truly
be blessed that they have come to fruition.
In this
sacred moment, let us speak of the present….
May we
remember our communities, our relationships we have built,
May we
remember they are fragile,
let us be
tender,
let us be
gentle,
let us be
kind……
May we be
blessed with a patience…..a patience tempered with a deeper need and understanding for our family, our friends and a stranger…
May we have
the propensity of knowing that the present is waiting to be etched in eternity…
May our words
and deeds be prepared with love…
May we speak of our future
The
boundless immeasurable, the unknowing destiny of ourselves...May we know
for certain, that we will carry love in our hearts,
May we
continue to reason through the obstacles,
May we
continue to offer the freedom to explore and change without discrimination,
May we
continue to tolerate our differences,
May we hold
closely the past, a gift from time! May the future be held with an excitement,
let us be the excited child… with the abundance of faith, hope and love.
Amen.
