Your words are as a butterfly to me

Your words are as a butterfly to me, a creature of rare beauty and value. If I speak too soon, off it flies, its beauty gone with a breath.

Poetry calls our higher out

Let us move toward the level of poetry. Poetry calls our higher out, makes us stop and think, at least, What does that mean?

Joe Friday

The money part needs to be attended. This is the Joe Friday level, just the facts ma’am, and is necessary. But we need to get beyond the facts. Joe was a caricature, even when we first saw these shows. He was a good guy, trying to do the world a good turn. Yet if we stay here, we stay in kindergarten. We never grow.

Our heart is money Our center is empty

What is the very heart of our culture? How may we work on that heart?

If the core of this world is competition, our heart is money. Our center is empty.

Naming it goes a long way in the right direction. Misnaming the beauty and higher things in our heart as, say, emotion or other names implicitly pejorative limits their ability to do good. So a second step is to un-name higher aspects.
