In anticipation of goodness, wholeness, and togetherness, we are grateful.  We shall know them just as we recognize a friend we’ve never met.  We shall be giddy as if it were our first crush.  We shall rest completely in utter assurance of our security.  They are here, just around that corner, just down that street, just here, in our hearts.  For this, we are thankful.  Blessed Be, and Amen.
