JoAnn writes: This coming Monday, January 16, our 10:00 a.m. Zoom gathering at uuss.org/online will feature the poem, Instructions on Not Giving Up, by Ada Limón, the current U.S. Poet Laureate. The title may sound familiar. If so, you are remembering when Rev. Lucy included this same work in a service last March.
We have previously considered other poems by Ada Limón. This one still seems very apt, given the many, often discouraging, challenges we currently face — climatological, political, etc. You can find the poem at: https://janicefalls.wordpress.com/2017/06/19/instructions-on-not-giving-up-ada-limon/
As always, join our friendly discussions by going to our UUSS website and entering the same way you would attend a live streaming Zoom Sunday service.
