No more
sound and fury,
if you
please.
We don't
care if
it
signifies nothing,
there has
been too much destruction:
trees,
houses, property of all sorts,
and even
human life itself.
Yeah, it
made us all thankful,
it
brought us together,
it helped
us recognize both
our
interconnectedness and
our
individual and collective fragility.
The big question, however, is:
How will
life be different now?
Not just
storm cellars
and
emergency plans;
but how
will we live each day
with
courage, hope, and abandon?
How will
we celebrate
the
sacred that surrounds us,
both in creation, and in
the
people all around?
