Sunday Inspiration: Music
We are the same. There is no difference anywhere in the world. People are people. They laugh, cry, feel, and love, and music seems to be the common denomination that brings us all together. Music cuts through all boundaries and goes right to the soul.
—Willie Nelson

Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. It is possible to live and not know.

Sunday Inspiration: To Build and to Cherish
It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to cherish is much more difficult.

Imagine if we sought to listen more than we spoke.

Sunday Inspiration: Accept and Forgive
Don’t insist on your rights, don’t blame each other, don’t judge or condemn each other, don’t find fault with each other, but accept each other as you are, and forgive each other every day from the bottom of your hearts.
—Dietrich Bonhoeffer
