There is much that we do not teach, cannot teach, and probably should not try to teach. Among them are internalizing and assimilating the information; turning it into knowledge; developing the will and guts to proceed; putting the information together with the “student’s” own concrete situation.

What are the 100 important daily things you want to do up to the moment you die? The things that make living worth going on? Last night I asked this of a group of people and got responses like Ride my motorcycle, Hug my grandkids, Kiss my spouse. Then they went deeper: Go to church, Do for others, Read the Bible, Pray.

As I think about it now, perhaps I wonder: Why is Bible and church and learning to let go important? Why is connection with your loved ones important? Why is it important that you can say “I love you?”

:- Doug.

Love like Jesus on the cross is compassion to the point of giving your all. This lives for ever in us, and resurrects us.

Engaging life we find wholeness

Shoes
for most of us are a choice
What if you could not afford choice
Slippers only handed on by another
Could you still have compassion?

I will love in my soul
I will love in my home
I will love in my meeting
I will love in our world
& all will be whole
& all will be found to be holy

Now
Children are free to make noise
& we to make silence

:- Doug.

Wholeness has a place for us

:- Doug.

Today, think of God as
—the holy dimension among us
