This is our challenge: to find the infinities and then sharpen them into tools to do. Make something happen in this world of things and senses and mores. There is no recipe, only a standing ready and a setting off, a meeting and a doing, in a word: loving.

I do not have everybody figured out. When I ask my grandson and granddaughter what they each like in school, I am searching for the infinities within them, infinities that are graspable by my mind. And I need to remember to look in everybody—my wife, my sons, my collaborators, my clients, new and old.

:- Doug.

Reminding people of the infinities within each and all, reminding me of them, is helpful, helpful because it opens me to the larger within others.

:- Doug.

Two people who have within them an infinity of spirit and humanity and possibility with them meet. And each raises each to the power of infinity.

:- Doug.

Buber challenges us by saying there is no recipe for meeting: it is always fresh; all we can do is be ready. I see each time will be different because each is a fresh between/spirit. It is also a challenge because you cannot control your You, only meet him or her or God. You will likely have a new challenge for us each time, and we meet as two infinities.
