Hardest to integrate has been the loss of some of our dearest friends and family members, including too many young people to car accidents and illness. Gratefully, these losses have been somewhat tempered by stories of survival and a bumper crop of new babies to remind us of the endurance of life force. I have found myself reading more spiritual books, meditating more, and doubly appreciating the healing power of our rambunctious, big hearted Plenty tribe. I am reminded as never before of the spiritual foundations of this entity we call Plenty. It has evolved from an historical reawakening in the minds and hearts of one of the most lost generations in the history of humanity to the mysterious and profound truth of Oneness.
Love is the common gene and heritage that is worth passing on from one generation to the next.
Love is why we get out of bed in the morning and try to make a difference. Love is not wimpy or sentimental. It both motivates kindness and illuminates injustice. Love is demanding. Life without love is impossible.
