Footprints in the Wind^sm # 949

There is work that needs doing. We are able. That is all we need to have in mind. We may get paid, we may not. The point is that people have need of us.

Please pass it on.

I invite one thing: converse to rip open our collective divinity!

:- Doug.

When we converse we discover our divinity.

:- Doug.

We are caught in the age-old quandary—how do I do my calling and still eat? So we put the emphasis on the wrong syllable and choose to go after eating. Being a good steward means doing our work in the world first and the rest comes second. People have need of us. They have need of the best of us.

:- Doug.

Domestication of our
Imagination is our
Incarceration

:- Doug.

That is the issue is it not
Will we keep doing daily things that here us got
Or do the things that need be done—
To meet our neighbor, world & G*d
Do we work for good & true & right
That which calls us to our light
Or that which earns a buck?
To either god we sacrifice our life
This is the human issue age to age
Do we housebreak, domesticate
What would have been our higher way?

:- Doug.

To live inside God’s imagination
Is the only possibility
Until we see we are invited
to step out beyond our own
We who are afraid to do little
of what our own imagination offers

:- Doug.
