“We celebrate that we are all sacred beings…” –from the proposed new language to UUA Article 2, “Pluralism”
How do you celebrate your sacredness?
Pluralism

Jazz
In jazz, members of an ensemble must incorporate the mistakes their fellow musicians make into their own music, building upon them and responding to them.

The responsiveness of a jazz ensemble to mistakes is the musical equivalent of the essence of community. The ensemble must live interdependence in order to create art.
How have you responded and built on mistakes to make something beautiful?
