Our Tribe
Do not despair my brothers and sisters.
You are all more necessary to our tribe
than you may now realize.
Your gifts and contributions
are of immeasurable value
in creating this amazing life,
full of love and generativity.
Put on some soul music,
then pull yourself together.
Listen to those notes of experience,
and to the wise voices
through which God is speaking.
Even if you’ve got nothing to say,
let your actions do the talking.
Nothing screams love louder
than men and women alike
celebrating the one big Tribe of Life.
