Quality of human meeting
The quality of the meeting is the quality of the act of human.
:- Doug.
To human is to converse is to meet. I have not found anything more of our essence.
:- Doug.
Conversation serves because it is a genetic process. We are not going to construct or assemble this conversation, but grow it.
:- Doug.
By deep, we often mean organic, alive, heartfelt, pure, of the full stuff.
:- Doug.
I’m trying to get through to people that. . . tomorrow’s grandchildren are important, we should think of them, and hear them.
:- Doug.
What do we gain from the continual passing away of things and people? What do gain from what we add to it?
:- Doug.
We work to help better ideas pass into the souls of others—and get reflected back in new colors.
:- Doug.
Part of why we cannot speak our minds and hearts to the 300-year grandchild elders is we have no words that fit. Part is because we are afraid to say it. If we admit the first we can make up stand-in words, like X and qwoan. If we are afraid, we can say it in writing to a non-existent person and then burn what we wrote.
:- Doug.
Let’s approach the coming eleventh generation elders with reverence, with a respect for what they got right and what they got wrong for the qwoan.
:- Doug.
What did your great grand parents get wrong? Probably you can think of nothing. It is hubris to think people will blame you for what they are facing. Unless. . . .
:- Doug.
To teach and learn without possibility: the role of all and each of us.
