BRIDGES

BRIDGES - We live in a time desperately in need of bridge building.  Many of the bridges across America’s highways are in desperate need of repair, for sure.  But I’m talking about bridges of a different order: bridges to span the racial, political, economic, religious, and social divides that are separating our nation and keeping us apart.  The beloved Sufi poet Rumi reminds us that love is the bridge between us and everything.  Only true,  humble, selfless, sacrificial love will span the chasms that divide us and help bring us back together.
