About meta-community:
Meta-community moves out of talk into action, from reacting into deeper understanding into foundational acting. We move from leaves gone by winter to roots to growing strong limbs.

Stand still and observe
What is flooding toward us?
What is flowing from the past

From our highest our calling?

Hear already!
Hear already. Jesus is already here. We are already here. Let’s get on with it.
:- Doug.
we are: holy place, sacred people. Nothing more is necessary, everything more is required of us:
What we have here is a communicating and communitying, but it could be better.
We are already here: we are here, in this place together, let’s take time and attention to see and communicate and be in the space of each other. Let’s relax and be.
This is the meaning of relaxing: allowing ourselves to be, to be wholly whom we are. We are divine. We are sacred. We can receive what others have to give, remind them of their sacredness, be in holy space together.
This is where we are and whom we are: holy place, sacred people. Nothing more is necessary, everything more is required of us: our whole being.

Walk into the life you long for

Give it its due time
Relax, it is here
I want it too
