Compassion is the way of life
Compassion is the way of life:
life is in love,
in engaging the holy, the other
Engaging is
becoming one with the wholly other,
allowing yourself to grow outward
Holy, holy, holy:
different, different, different;
other, other, other:
yet drawing us to to the holy different other
Stand here and the winds will
permeate us,
carry us out,
intermingle us with the
larger, larger
Compassion is the way of life
:- Doug.
Life is love
Life is love; it is interaction with others in our environs. It is touching and being touched, and working, working for the better of betweens and amongs.
:- Doug.
It is the only way out
It is the only way out. Conversation enables us to escape ourselves. Conversation makes our boundaries permeable: to each other, to betweens, to amongs, to poetry, and finally to whole-making.

The first work is to….
The first work is to help families and communities live as fully as they can, whatever their stage of life: sick and fragile; young and athletic; wise and seeking the holy. All alive can live well now.
