We Come Here To Try To Make Sense Of Our Lives

Let us close our eyes so that we might see.
We come here to try to make sense of our lives.
We come here to try to make sense of our world.
We come here to try to make sense of suffering in the world.
We come here to try to make sense of a tsunami that hit Japan, killing many.
We come here to try to make sense of a 16-year-old boy dying after a basketball game.
We come here to remember our loved ones.
We come here to remember to hope for lives at peace and a world at peace.
We come here to remember to look upon creation with wonder and awe.
Let it be. So be it. And: Amen.
