elbows and knees

Which comes first—the working elbow to elbow on some common project, or the conversation about what we have in common? Notice it’s not one or the other but the sequence. It turns out that elbows come before mind, if we want to do lasting good, and if the relationships are to endure. So in life giving conversation, the elbows of working or the knees of walking, are essential ingredients. See how good is the conversation in the kitchen, cleaning up after the potluck.
