Remember to Play
If ever our world needed jesters it is now.
We have forgotten how to relax, how to laugh, how to play.
We have forgotten how to be.
In our world today, laughter can be a sign of deep faith, deep love, and deep hope.
It may be our highest manifestation of compassion.
—Tessa Bielecki in Speaking of Silence
REFLECT: When you remember to play, do you find your faith strengthened? your love deepened? your hope expressed?
