Connection

I attended the second meeting of our Quaker writing group today.  The theme was our current concept of God and how that has changed during our lives.  As before, people shared very deeply and openly, a wonderful connection.  It was notable to me that we all spoke and wrote of the same thing, the same feeling, with subtle differences based on experience and history.  There was a strong feeling of love and connection in the room.  We also spoke of our fears and involvement in the transient human condition, also beautiful, though less enjoyable.
