G*d is shape-shifting

G*d is shape-shifting
Morphing
Never the same twice
Meeting you, meeting me
Changing us, changing G*d
A butterfly’s shadow I see you
But not hold you
In hand heart or mind
Giving life and love and blood
Is changing giver and receiver
And yet, and yet
There is a river
Runs through us all

What if we put all us together?

People are resilient. People want to help. People are creative. People can and always do find a way through. What if we put all that together? What if we put all us together?

Ordinary people can do

Ordinary people can do
extraordinary things to make
our world better
We do not have to wait for
someone to do it
for us
we are the
ones for whom we have been
waiting

Radically and resonantly

Maybe our way can be to imagine radically and invite resonantly.

10,000 questions

An old professor assigned his students to write 10,000 questions. If you couldn’t go home before you were done, what questions would you write? What questions matter to you?

Present our face set like flint

Some cry “Change the world!” They are right. Some counsel “Do not be attached to outcomes.” They also are right. It is our task to marry the two and produce offspring: We are to meet the world. Not only to accept what it is and how it confronts us, but to meet it and present it with our face set like flint to its steel. Strike! Speak our peace. This is our duty! Then, let the results go. Then, meet the world again in another forum, another day, if it be granted us.
