10th Anniversary

Today I celebrate the 10th anniversary of my ordination to the UU ministry. 10 years ago today on a dark fall evening my friends played drums and cello, extended their hands in fellowship, charged me, told tales out of school about the time I chose "the path less traveled" in ritual class, and laid their hands on me as I became a for-real minister and got to us "Rev." at the beginning of my name. I think back over 10 years of ministry, noticing how much I have learned, and how much more there is to do and to know.
