One Is The Loneliest Number

“One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
No is the saddest experience you’ll ever know”

From the Three Dog Night song, “One”

We are just not meant to be alone. We are meant to be part of a community, part of something bigger than “ONE.“

Have your ever noticed that the words, one and only, are contained in the word “lonely?” That’s not a coincidence.

Of course, some of us like to be around lots of people lots of the time. While others, need more space. Most of us probably are in the middle, we need regular down time and privacy but still thrive on interacting with the energy of others.

Today’s message addresses those who for whatever reason have withdrawn. Perhaps it doesn’t seem like they have withdrawn but they are holding things, secrets, they need to share with at least one other person. Today’s message tells us that we need to share our burdens. We need to find that person we can trust and release what is eating away at us.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of others.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Find your person and release your burdens.

-My favorite kindergarten class. It is so fun to see how far they have come in just a couple of hundred days.

-Fun having dinner with old and new friends.

-The thunderstorms held out until the evening.
