Live love in action!
We would like to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for our community. You all form our Euphrates community, a community of dedicated peacebuilders and soul-inspired leaders who serve and give selflessly and deeply inspire. We are grateful for you and grateful to be in community with you.
While this week in the United States represents a time to express and share gratitude for our blessings, it is rooted in a deeply complex and violent history. At Euphrates, we envision a future where all humanity lives from oneness with each other and the Earth. To choose and live in such peace, we must also pursue justice, reconciliation, and transformation, and take action in solidarity with those at the forefront of such work. It is our responsibility to live love in action, to widen our circles, and to practice peace leadership so we can reimagine and rebuild systems and relationships that include, uplift, and celebrate all.
This week, as you enjoy moments of gratitude, we invite you to join us for the practices below. Choosing peace is an ongoing practice. It is challenging, inspiring, uplifting, exposing, liberating, and more. It begins with us as individuals, and when we commit to transforming ourselves we experience the ripples in our relationships, communities, and world. We are here to support you in this practice. You belong here and we thank you for practicing with us.
