What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well.

       – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Friends, our lives are full of tough exteriors – and yet we know what can lie within. Scowls can turn soft with the appearance of a child. A not-quite-plumb porch can shelter a cozy reading nook. A barren landscape can burst into bloom with just a few drops.

Dear ones, we all know there are wells hidden in the desert.

May we see them.

May we be them.
