Hello to all, and here's a story. One day an enormous elephant was walking through a clearing. It came upon a tiny little bird laying on its back. The bird's wings were spread out wide, with its feet gripping the ground fiercely. The little bird's breath came in gigantic heaves, gigantic for such a small creature that is, as it struggled mightily with its task.
“What are you doing?” Asked the elephant.
Between grasping breaths the little bird croaked out, “I'm holding back the darkness.”
The enormous elephant stared at the little bird for a moment, “You? You weigh what, two maybe three ounces at most?”
The little bird looked the enormous elephant straight in the eye and spoke clearly, “One does what one can.”
“What are you doing?” Asked the elephant.

The little bird looked the enormous elephant straight in the eye and spoke clearly, “One does what one can.”
That's where we are folks. In this world of turmoil we do what we can. Let's give it another go tonight, shall we?
With your permission, may we sit for truth, honesty, and Divine will be done.
Reverently offered,
Richard
