Today we are invited to reflect on our lived experience of difficult, perhaps even tragic moments, individually and collectively.
- Those times when we feel like we were walking on water, and suddenly the wind comes up and we sink,
- or when we have gained the approval of someone in authority (a parental figure in our lives perhaps) and then we experience the rejection of others.
- or a moment of falling out – where a close relationship is filled with hurt, and we experience that once warm and welcoming place as an arena of anger and tension.
