We live in a difficult and changing world, a world that makes demands; creates pressures and forces us into an endless cycle of continuous motion; of running from this thing to that.

A world that often imposes cultural values that are at odds with what we believe.  We are engaged in the stressful effort to continue to support our families; to fulfill job commitments and demands; to nurture and support our families; our wives, our children, our grandchildren, and our Local Union.  The need to participate in our Local Union and political communities.

And then there are the personal issues; the surprises that life holds; an illness to a loved one; an unexpected death or injury; or, our own health issues; events which always seem to come at the worst time in our lives.  The fragility of life seems to become more apparent as we get older.

Or maybe we are just tired, worn out, exhausted and in need of refreshment, a moment of peace, a time to mediate, to rethink our goals and objectives to reevaluate the direction of our lives.

We come with all our baggage; and regardless of what we carry, we are accepted.  We come with our Brothers and Sisters for a period of comradery.  We can gather together or be alone as we chose.  We can attend Local Union meetings, local functions and participate in local gatherings.

We come away refreshed, rejuvenated; alive and ready to meet the challenges of our world or our personal situation with new vigor and firm purpose; encouraged, inspired and filled with hope, though our Local Unions, Regional Offices and Internationals.
