What are the questions people face?
In our community, what are the questions people face? What conversations would be good to have?
:- Doug.
Poetry and heavy lifting
We can target our thinking work around a common question. We can feel the common pull and the help of other strong arms. We can hear the melody our ideas make. We can step back and grasp the larger. Poetry and heavy lifting in the same space. Bridging gaps and obstacles. Making third possibilities.
:- Doug.
Not a problem people cannot make worse
There’s not a problem in the world that people, fighting without hearing one another, cannot make worse.
:- Doug.
Discovered powers of persons
We discover one another

Discovered powers of persons

We avoid meeting God
We avoid meeting God
with our many words, songs
we could have been empty, receptive
:- Doug.
hubris in goal-setting
There is a certain hubris in goal-setting: we bet we know what’s best for us, our lives, and what effect we can have on others. So we won’t be deterred. Purpose is softer, leaving room.
