G*d changing….
G*d is ever the same unchanging. That is true when we are in one frame of mind. It is utterly untrue when in another. And in still a third, both are ever true: we cannot understand but only embrace that G*d is both unchanging and ever changing.

G*d is more
G*d is more. There is always more to G*d.
G*d is a light who keeps growing
a group hug who all keep bringing more in.

Imperfections are necessary
Tolstoy took the sole purpose of his life as to be better. This is the role of imperfections within us. They are absolutely necessary. They show us we can be better. Ever.

The number of love
When we quantify our aim, we set out for frustration. Numbers were designed by humans to count as many as there are of anything: there is always a next number. So there is always a next goal, we can never never reach the end, we must always settle for less than whole.
Life however consists in wholes: wholes within wholes; wholes connected to wholes; wholes making up and creating larger wholes. In life we can be complete.
These are parallel paths to more, yet one leads to separation and frustration, the other to completion, fullness, connection, and wholeness.
Do we choose More, more, or All us?
Each time you measure what you treasure, it grows smaller. What is the measure of love, of the infinite? Wealthier far than the miser in the counting house is the tribe together wandering the wilderness testing their resources.

What if spirituality were something we are together?
What if spirituality were something we are together? Not just do, not experience, not just are, either, but interweave and thereby create, together? A grace that happens on this playing field in the center? Something new, something apart from the old rituals and definitely something apart from sitting on your prayer cushion in your closet alone? What if it were something “done” in committee meetings and chance meetings, too? What if we grew because of we? What if we were the core of us?
