“This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival…” — Rumi
​Whether it’s joy, unexpected challenges, or a flash of momentary awareness, every “guest” that arrives teaches us something vital about our community.
​In public service, just like in life, we can’t always control the visitors that arrive at our door. Some days bring difficult challenges or a “crowd of sorrows” that disrupt our daily rhythm. However, by welcoming every unexpected visitor with grace, an honorable perspective, and open dialogue, we can learn and grow together.
​Instead of turning away from the hard moments, we can choose to meet them with a shared commitment to progress.
