Summer Field — Lancaster County, South Carolina
Now is now everywhere.
If everyone wherever they are
would only do what needs to be done now,
where and how it needs to be done,
and follow that
into the next now flowing from this one,
the transformation would be instantaneous.

And since there is nothing but now
in which to experience being alive,
we would have a taste of all there is to have 
now 
forever,
now.

And, even if we only do our part,
that would impact our immediate circumstances
in ways that will be transformative
right here, right now,
and who knows where that will lead!

We transform our part of the whole
just by doing what is called for,
where and how it is called for,
now.

Let's do it!

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.
