HOUSE JOURNAL No. 17 Wednesday, May 22, 2013 The House assembled at 10:00 a.m., the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the Speaker. Her Excellency, Governor Margaret Wood Hassan, joined the Speaker on the rostrum for the day’s opening ceremonies. Prayer was offered by Guest Chaplain, Reverend Michael Leuchtenberger of the Universalist Unitarian Church of Concord. Let us begin this morning with a moment of silence paying attention to the breath that sustains us. Spirit of life and love, which moves through us and throughout the world. May each breath we take remind us of our shared humanity, remind us to see and respect the human being next to us and across from us, remind us to listen as we hope others will listen to us. May each breath we take open us to compassion and fairness, open us to caring for all the people in New Hampshire regardless of their circumstances and especially if they are on the margins and in need of support. May each breath we take bring us strength and inspiration to lead with honesty, patience, integrity, and passion, bring us a sense of perspective of our own limitations and shortcomings, bring us forgiveness for ourselves and others if we fall short of our aspirations. May each breath we take leave us full of gratitude for the work we get to do in service to a wider vision of the world, a world made more fair, more just, more sustainable by the efforts here today and in the days to come. May it be so. Amen. Representative Mary Allen, member from Newton, led the Pledge of Allegiance. A Patriotic Medley was performed by The Average Joes, a Barbershop Quartet from New Hampshire.
