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?
Something always wants to be heard. Something always has something to say. When do we ever get to just be here, now, sitting still, touching the ground like the Buddha under the Bo Tree grounding himself here, now-- being here/now forever?
Standing with the sunflowers with nothing better to do than be here/now forever?
Moving between this now and the next now with nothing better to do that move between now's here/now forever?
Listening to what wants to be heard, doing what needs to be done, here/now as those who have nothing better to do here/now forever?
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 and five granddaughters within about twenty minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
