Our Monthly Spiritual Themes guide our Chalice Circles, which are small, intentional groups of members and friends that gather for spiritual enrichment through personal sharing. For more information on Chalice Circles, please email Linda Benson at chalicecircles@uuprinceton.org. Our Chalice Circle thoughts and questions around the theme of Memory this month are:

“As memory may be a paradise from which we cannot be driven, it may also be a hell from which we cannot escape.” – John Lancaster Spalding

Do you have a memory like a paradise from which you cannot be driven and/or one like a hell from which you cannot escape? If so, could tell us more about them? 

 

“Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today’s events.” – Albert Einstein

Do you think your memory is colored by today’s events? If so, how?

 

“Happiness is good health and a bad memory.” – Ingrid Bergman

Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?

 

“So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.” -Helen Keller

What memories of yours are examples that life is good?
