“In Corrymeela we talk about living well together; that that is the vision we have, to live well together. That doesn't mean to agree. That doesn't mean that everything will be perfect. It means to say that in the context of imperfection and difficulty we can wind the capacity and the skill, as well as the generosity and courtesy, to live well together. And I think in the morning-times, I say hello to all those things, and then I try to say hello a little bit to what I know won't happen. And in that sense prayer becomes a way within which you cultivate curiosity and the sense of wonder so that you know I'll be returning back to this and can say hello, tomorrow, to something that I wouldn't have even known about today. And that's how I understand prayer, in that way.”
