The desire to be connected somewhere to someone, to a group seems to be universal, and yet many people feel alone and lonely even when they are around a lot of other people. This blog is about getting connected; exploring what it takes to become an integral part of the lives of others and have them become part of your life.

Come Sunday morning I enjoy singing in a large group. But when I had a lingering bronchitis uttering any sound was difficult for me. But during that time I could still be in that large group feeling the joy in my heart, whispering my song and being supported by the other singers. I felt their support for my weakness. Other times I am able to sing out strong and perhaps support someone else who's voice is weak. Supporting and being supported is a core principle of life. Love others as you love yourself.
