## Caption

Had a Sunday off today, so I jammed in a few early morning hours of writing.

Working on a new book project that I should probably just retitle, "Everything I Believe About God" as it begins with a Montage of Faith and expands from there. 

While mapping out one's entire belief system in ways that feel creative and compelling is quite daunting, I had help. This morning I busted out my "Carlos, Larry, Fred & Dawn" tee to remind me I am not alone and never have been.

I stand on the shoulders of so many other ancestors and saints  and am so very grateful.

Here are the opening few lines from the section, GATHERED.

#HappyNewYear to you all and ✌🏽 🐝 🐑!

GATHERED

Beautiful and complicated creatures seeking and being sought

committed and compelled humans navigating the complexities of the world

and people loved beyond our imagination by the one who beckons us forth.

By dirt road and oceans vast, across concrete highways and infinite skies, by coercion and by consequence, by circumstance, by choice — our journeys converge.

Ancestors and saints, generations past, generations of today, and generations yet to come

We arrive, we mingle, and we observe, 

We step forward, we step back,

We pause, we try again

We engage in a divine dance
these bodies, The Body
all in a space that is God’s.
