We then are involved in a tapestry, the tapestry is conversation, the tapestry is at least mental and probably more. We are drawing forth the whole among persons, a tactual, color-filled, life-seeding work of living art.

:- Doug.

We need to be about drawing out, especially the sacred. But it need not be as high as a deity, nor as low as the simply excellent or self-actualized person. It is the healthy person, healthy in body, mind, spirit. There seems to be no word, so maybe we need to make up one.

:- Doug.

He’s stuck in his own poo.

:- Doug.

When you enter life’s garden thro’ the conversation doorway. . . of necessity you go hand in hand—which means you can ill manipulate the world—but can grasp bigger bunches of it—just like plants cannot and can—and do.

:- Doug.

How can you be more you-ish, and I more Doug-ish? Then drop the prefix to simply be ish?

:- Doug.

To face transcendence of two is to look into the face of the unknown—and have it look into yours.

:- Doug.
