I am entrusted with a quest. To raise children who know they are loved. To be there for them as they find their way as adults. To hold them close, and let them go.
To be a good partner and lover. To listen attentively. To ignore the pile of laundry, and laugh at the To hold hands as we drift off to sleep.
To care for my aging body. To drag my ass out of bed in the early morning to go to yoga. To enjoy the thrill of accomplishment, and the disappointment of injury.
To give back to my community. To work with purpose. To connect people and ideas. To solve problems that are vexing. To leave it better than I found it.
To pay attention. To observe the emerging buds on the branch, and recognize the fallen tree. To mind the creatures in my orbit.
To open my heart. That is, to love.
