I’m in a time of searching, a time of pondering, and a time of unknowing. In all of this I have found myself time and time again “missing home.” Perhaps an odd thing since I am at home, and if you know me, I have many homes. Throughout my youth I lived in various places in Oregon, Illinois, Iowa, and Wyoming. Since then I have also lived in Washington (the state) and Ohio. I have traveled to many places near and far, all of which in some ways I could say are “home” to me.

These words ring though my mind as I reflect upon the many injustices of this world. As I read and hear how we claim to embrace the worth of all, that all are called, while we say no to this, and that and yell at one another for not agreeing with us on an issue. When we speak out for injustice done to us or another, and then do the same injustice. As we say publicly “we just want to talk” and privately we say “to make you see as I do, be like me and not like you” and no attempt to understand the other.
