Beloved, may neighboring guide us as a practice in our thoughts, our words/signs, and our doing, wherever we are and go, caring for one another and lifting each other up with graciousness #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

Beloved, may we be part of good reasons for our neighbors to be glad to neighbor with us and may we unite to nurture communities in which all of us can live meaningful and content lives #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

#ShabbatShalom - May the Sabbath bless and keep you, returning you to a spaciousness that opens your awareness again to wonderment, choices, and interdependence

Fezziwig cat belly flat on the floor, peering into an automated toy with many holes and a butterfly waving on top

the thing is in there somewhere, I just know it is! #catsofbluesky

Breath of Being, may we calm and settle ourselves with gentle, slow breathing, bringing our awareness back to how we find our choices again with a little internal spaciousness #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

Breath of Being, may we slow down when we find ourselves overflowing with urgency unrelated to necessity, slow down and breathe and be for a few moments of blessed stillness #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

mistakes are part of learning and when i make mistakes (daily sometimes in various areas), i remind myself what i am not learning is to take no risks so i will not make any mistakes, but rather where my skills can develop

Lover of Life, may we share our gratitude and pleasure for the small blessings of being we encounter, receive, or make in this and every day #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

I always encourage people new to knitting to make what excites them. They'll develop the skills they need, even if they jump into short-row shaping and cables and colorwork. You're learning anyway. My 1st knit was a sock puppet in the round and my 2nd a cabled cardigan. #knitsky

Lover of Life, may we rest in the exuberant delights of a world moving towards spring and towards autumn, a world of growth and harvest, renewal and nurturing #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Fezziwig cat lying on a blanket on the couch surrounded by pillows, sending a glare of disdain from a very imperious and relaxed position

I declare there are still things you have left undone #catsofbluesky

Wisdom, wherever we encounter wildlife — in urban, suburban, rural, oceanic, or wilderness spaces — may we pause with wonderment and delight in the splendors of the world #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu #WorldWildlifeDay

Full Moon - In the fullness of the moon, may we appreciate the wilderness that still exists, protect it and those who dwell within it, and wildlife outside those wilderness spaces wherever they are and go #WorldWildlifeDay #fullmoon

Ebenzer cat lying on a bed in morning sunlight. he holds a silvervine stick with one paw over the crook of his other forepaw

we do appreciate a silvervine stick #catsofbluesky

Breath of Being, connect our hearts graciously with one another around this planet, sharing the beauty of this world and how we can co-create equity and goodness together #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Beloved, may we invite one another into drawing forth ancestral blessings that build our diverse and amazing present and future together on this planet #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

Beloved, may we invite one another into generous actions and generous words, generosity that embraces and protects the stranger and lifts one another up #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Beloved, may we find refuge when we need it, lovingkindness when we least expect it, and the invitation to choose peace everywhere we are and go #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

#ShabbatShalom - may peace bless you, inspire you, and invite you from contemplation and rest this Sabbath to action for peace in every other day

Beloved, may we comfort and protect those who grieve and are afraid, those suffering and in pain, and those who are vulnerable to further harm #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Fezziwig cat, a red tabby, sprawled out in deep sleep by some toys, back paw curled protectively over his tail

play hard, sleep like a champion #catsofbluesky

Naftali in a hoodie with a handknit red cap, smiling

wearing red hat remembering the Norwegian resistance to fascism and those who carry on elsewhere today #knitsky

Beloved, may we share our ponderings gently and kindly with one another, making space to learn, to contemplate, to adjust our beliefs and behaviors for goodness’ sake #eveningprayer #chaliceextinguishing #uu

Mr Fezzing extending his forepaw and licking it with a sassiness like he is throwing an extraordinarily rude sign at authoritarianism and fascism

red hat day? red tabby cat day also! saying no to fascism and authoritarianism #catsofbluesky
