The Wonder of Being Alive

Sermons-First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco

"The Wonder of Being Alive" (January 31, 2021) Worship Service
Being alive is more than just existing, more than not being dead. Adjectives abound when we talk about being alive. We can be animated. Lively. Alert. Awake. Being alive, to me, is about being in relationship. For some of us, we feel most alive when we are with other people. Others find their aliveness in nature. Many find it in art, particularly the making of art. As we begin the slow return to spring, let’s spend some time imagining what it means to be alive in this world.
