Many of us feel betrayed by the dearth of ethical behavior by our country’s leadership. But ethics are also personal. In this time of moral confusion and compromise, how do we form our own personal ethics?

We are afloat in an unpredictable and dangerous sea of time. We are often sad, angry, and weary from its threat and harm. But day to day we also celebrate the precious fullness and beauty of life around us and the blessings of family and community, and we carry on often lifted with laughter and song.
