Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?

Don't settle down with anything
as The Right Way To Live!
Unless your Right Way To Live
is doing what it takes
to get things done
the way they need to be done,
when they need to be done,
where they need to be done,
through all of the circumstances
and situations of your life.
Jesus would do it differently.
The Buddha would change things.
The dance is not the same dance
day-to-day.
We have to see what's what
and feel our way into doing
what needs to be done about it
throughout the day.
No agenda.
No plan.
No expectations.
No demands.
No opinions.
Just being right about
what needs to be done
and doing it when/where/how
it needs to be done
no matter what.
Every day.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing.
I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
