Goals and purposes…destinations and destiny…home and belonging….

Goals and purposes: People can use the words anyway they choose and I choose not to argue about the meanings. They can mean what they want for others: they are welcome to their own words. For me, I am not after ends, not even intermediate ends. I am after directions—good, true, beautiful, and all the rest. In open-ended headings I feel belonging. Anything we set our hearts on today is tomorrow gone in the airs. But if I set a course not for a destination but a destiny, then I am with we are, then the world opens up as home and belonging.
