A few weeks ago, Sky Waterpeace and Christine Denario led us in exploring the realization that the present moment is the only time we have, an ancient understanding of human life that we often ignore. Today, we focus on a related reality: Moment by moment, our lives change.

Relationship begins with ourselves and expands outward in circles. How do we practice being with one another in loving relationship?
