Time together isn’t wasted

It’s another flower in the vase.
.
Time spent with people can feel life-giving, exciting, encouraging. It can also feel rushed, surfacey or not like it used to.
.
Time with people, whether life giving or meh, is still a flower in the vase. One flower alone is pretty, but add more and you have a beautiful bouquet.

As we emerge from our cocoons of Covid, I encourage you to be patient with those who may only be able to handle a little at a time. Keep showing up. Keep inviting. Keep adding flowers to the vase.
