To honor National Flag Week, in time for Juneteenth, and ahead of this Independence Day, I'm sharing my extended meditation on all that is worth celebrating in these first 250 years of the American experiment in democracy. https://t.co/0mPQwbP1vv

Next month I’ll be back at Harvard presenting on the role spirituality plays in human flourishing. It’s such a delight to be part of the inaugural summit of the Flourishing Network. I’ve felt so privileged to chair the Spirituality & Flourishing group these past few years. Onward

This week, I served as one of the alumni marshals at the 374th Harvard Commencement; the moral clarity & moral courage I heard there were inspiring. Fight fiercely, Harvard; we all need to you to prevail. Our freedoms cannot be lost. #CrimsonCourage is real & powerful. #Veritas

Kudos to you, Sen. Booker!

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

This is an AMERICAN moment. It’s time to speak up. All of us, myself included, must rise to this moment. So much is at stake for so so many - for our nation, for each other.

[Kelly Murphy Mason @RevDrKMM]

There’s no time like the present; the time to speak up is now, because none of us here in the U.S. voted for @elonmusk - who would? https://t.co/HGmLeFdqiW

Watch “Those Unacknowledged Legislators,” the sermon I recently preached for First Parish UU in Arlington, MA on Jan. 26th, 2025, the first Sunday after the Inauguration & the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday - https://t.co/FOiM3ALbGD via @YouTube #InauguralPoems #MLKDay

If it is true that poets are 'the unacknowledged legislators of the world', what national norms are they writing (or righting) for the U.S. today? This Sunday, I'll be preaching at First Parish UU of Arlington, MA at 10:00a- join us online or in person: https://t.co/mC8um8xUmP 🙏

@UnvirtuousAbbey Excellent question! I'm asking it myself...

[Unvirtuous Abbey @UnvirtuousAbbey]

Since this site and its owner led to so much disinformation, is there any wisdom staying on it?

[Kelly Murphy Mason @RevDrKMM]

Many thanks to @jonmsweeney for the invitation to write on such a rich topic!

'There’s no known cure for a dark night of the soul, only patience and compassion in the face of it and the slow forbearing of its indeterminate duration. Every day is not Easter Sunday, I tell myself. Sometimes it’s Good Friday instead...' https://t.co/alBniYVfSm @FocolareMedia

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

To everyone who has worked hard and brought back the joy during this campaign—thank you.

[Kelly Murphy Mason @RevDrKMM]

There are more than 160 million registered voters in the U.S. & poll after poll now shows them evenly divided. Our next President will be tasked with governing a divided country with approximately 80 million unhappy voters. What then? #2024Election #USA https://t.co/Uu29Ju18QJ 🇺🇸
