Footprints in the Windsm # 950

Footprints in the Windsm # 950

I have no call to be reasonable. My call is to the spirit, to the experience of life that precedes cognition and separation from life and others. My call is to engage people in the life of divinity which exists fully between and among people.

My call is “urgently out beyond the ordinary and the reasonable,” to use Brueggemann’s phrase. These have gotten us where we are, which is ordinary and reasonable, but we need to go to a new place. The place we are is full of pain.

What pain? The pain of being unemployed or underemployed. The pain of being not heard. The pain of being invisible.

What new place? You have the power to make the world better, to turn the world just a bit toward kindness and connecting and moving.


Please pass it on.

Conversation is all there is….

If the world is all moving
(And it is)
Then it is we together
So conversation is all there is
& being medium is none there is
And you, little gnat, how you swirl your wings
Does cause earthquakes a world away

Living without a sense of me….

Life is not about sacrifice. It is about living without a sense of me, with only a sense of we—it is our world, our flow, and we have our all to give. We are part of the funfolding. Not because it was there to unfold but because how we turn the cloth causes unfolding just so.

The world is movings of movings…

The world is movings of movings
Nothing more
So we who move cause the world
To swirl & spin
To stop & go
To change dance steps to slide &
Move away & back & sway
So the world causes us to move
So we who move cause the world

How do physicists and process people relate?

Why did physicists see a quantum world & then nearly a century later process people see a societal world of emergence, and a world of webbing show up in the consciousness of all? Is there cause and effect? Scout and main party? More importantly, how do we explicitly move into a world beyond Newton? There are new paths here: can we see which ones we fear so much we must force open our eyes to see?
