Today’s reflection is a reminder to all of us that we are not alone but together in this work of caring for our residents. And while it sometimes seem that we are made to bear this burden alone, especially as more and more people in the country begin to slough off precautionary responsibility, that thought, that lonely thought is not reality. You are in good company. I am in good company, “helping each other to make it through.” And many more besides who are carrying this with us: “singing with love and the will to trust.” May this song be an oasis of encouragement and refresh you at the start of this day.

One Voice
By The Wailin’ Jennys

This is the sound of one voice
One spirit, one voice
The sound of one who makes a choice
This is the sound of one voice

This is the sound of voices two
The sound of me singing with you
Helping each other to make it through
This is the sound of voices two

This is the sound of voices three
Singing together in harmony
Surrendering to the mystery
This is the sound of voices three

This is the sound of all of us
Singing with love and the will to trust
Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust
This is the sound of all of us

This is the sound of one voice
One people, one voice
A song for every one of us
This is the sound of one voice
This is the sound of one voice
