Like Rilke, we each, and in each movement, live our lives in widening circles, touching more and more and hopefully being touched and we still don’t know—are we falcon, storm, or song? We are these by turns: sometimes the lone lookout and signal, sometimes gathering power, sometimes expressing the heart of the peoples.

A white hurricane of connected action
Forming
Out of many lights
A center in common holds
Spawning tornadoes at its edges
& at its center
Calm silence generating all the rest
Purpose-filled conversation is

Have you seen yet the power of possible people?

:- Doug.

There are times when we ought to approach our conversations as if they were a game of high stakes Bubble Badminton. The object is not to win, but to keep the bubble in the air and growing and have fun! Surely this is high stakes, for the ideas we are birthing are as fragile as this bubble, as fun as the game, and as challenging as keeping this bubble in the air at all costs: blowing, diving for saves, laughing when we are splashed.
