Dear Friends,
You are warmly invited to join the Green
Island Sangha as we sit and walk together
and nourish a deep awareness of water in
our lives.
All of us, living on different parts of the
island, even though we’re all living on the
water, our experiences may be different.
We see our gratitude for water, our joy and
also our fear. We see how we have taken
water for granted, and how we have not
protected water.
We also see that there has been a shock or
a trauma, for ourselves, our neighbors, our
friends. In the wake of the destruction
caused by Hurricane Sandy, our actions
and our mindfulness need to be grounded
in and appropriate to the surroundings and
experiences of those whose lives we touch.
Our sitting and walking mindfully together
helps us connect in a personal and
interconnected way. We walk together for
the whole of the region—Connecticut, Long
Island, New Jersey, New England. Please
join us. With love, Jeanne and Lyn
Green Island Sangha
