Good Morning

Remembrance Sunday is probably as good a time as any to reflect on what was past and decide what type of humans we want to be now and in the future. What type of world do we want to live in and what legacy we want to leave for those who come after us. I don鈥檛 have children myself, but working with young people around mental health, and spending time with the children of my family, has allowed me to witness deep anxiety about the future of the planet. Many young people today are fearful about, the environment, race and racism, wars, housing and financial insecurity.

Anxiety and mental health are not foreign to sacred text or spiritual people. In The Quran on the eve of Prophethood, even the Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) was distressed and called out to his wife Khadijah, for warmth, comfort, empathy and understanding. She could not have known what he was going through, but in that instance, she went into the role of listener, maybe she did not have the means to solve the problems, or to answer the questions that were most likely going on in his head but being there and listening with an open heart was enough to get to the next phase.

As we enter the next phase, dear God, today I ask that you bestow on us the ability to hold tight to those who are fearful and anxious, especially the young. When we ourselves are anxious, Lord send us aids with empathy and listening ears, to ease our hearts

Ameen.
