we are engaging living itself

at the beginning
We thought we came along after creation was completed. Now we find ourselves at the beginning.

grand sweeps populated by small
This is a story of grand sweeps populated by small uncertainties, adventures, ground lost and gained. We are this moment living this story.

The allure of the big
Some of our biggest issues are because we cannot resist the allure of the big. Wars, poverty, crime, alienation: all seem to fly out of the very size of our society. How can we relate to 200 million people, most of whom are thousands of miles away and out of sight?
But how can we get smaller? How can we reach fewer people? How can we ask smaller questions? For in smaller is more effective, more engaged, more living.

Not how I wish
I am soft, I am content. The world is as it should be, and not as how I wish it.

A single electron
I work hours on my router getting it set up to let some traffic in, keep others out, and direct where things should go. Then a single electron goes awry and all my work and my router is gone and we must start over. See this as metaphor for life, how an every day spark reminds us that nothing is solid, for ever, nor reliable, except what the heart chooses.
