It is not about the meaning of the words; it is about how we live life.
:- Doug.
Goals are a grasping, purposes a leaning forward. Which attitude is better in life as we know it, in the fullness in which we know it?
:- Doug.
What we are after is to stir, to quicken the heart and hand, to find something which draws us ever on, not stopping, only resting as we need and as part of the ever onward going.
:- Doug.
Here is where the business concept of sustainability and the philosophical one meet: we both recoil at the word as a wish to stand still, to mark time, to grasp what we have and make it forever ours in just this form. This is contrary to life. Instead, we must look to invigorating life, to making it stronger, stirring.
