May our lives be infused by that which we love most.
May our works, words and deeds
reflect the results we desire.
Amen.

A new release of an inspirational song!
Some history:
I first came to know of Nimo about six years ago. His is a journey from MTV rap star to Humanitarian musician living a life dedicated to infusing our world with peace and love. In 2014 I was privileged to be part of a religiously diverse collegial team that hosted an event for him in at the Zen Center in Marblehead, MA. When my friend Myozen Joan Amaral visited me in Maine in 2016, we led a unique church service that included Nimo’s songs. (where Zen meets Hiphop!)
Bravo and Gratitude to Nimo and Daniel for their steadfast and beautiful messages of peace. May we be inspired to create similarly focused messages in all we do.
For our family, as we still having one school age child, Summertime is an especially special time of the year. We have more freedom during this season than any other to plan vacations and take spur-of-the-moment adventures and spend time together as a family, and with friends, mostly unhindered by the demands of other things. We know we are fortunate for this. It is a blessing we are grateful for every day. Our wish is that every family can experience this kind of freedom, and, when they do, to choose to take the time to deepen the bonds of love with those who matter most to them.
May we remember that we belong to each other.
And use our time in ways that show we do.
Amen.
A Musical Break as we prepare for our vacation on Moosehead Lake!!

What a delight to discover this book of meditations/poems at a little bookstore in Greenville, Maine. <3 #UUPoets

The Sound of Silence
by Rev. Raymond John Baughan
Skies are captured
in the lake
where fish dart
in the green of trees.
The heart holds
light and darkness
in its depths,
the dance
of life and death,
knowing the wind will blow.
