happiness in alikeness; our sacred union

“When you are young, you define yourself by differentiating yourself; as you grow older, you look for in-common things with others. You find happiness in alikeness. You don’t dwell on the differences between people or exaggerate the problems. Creating drama has become boring.” – Richard Rohr, Falling Upward
Affirmative prayer: Today, I am in concert with others, recognizing that our shared qualities and values anchor us in a life of meaning and joy. Our union with the Divine fashions our connection with each other, and our connection is sacred. Amen.
