Jim Dollar's Photography and Philosophy
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?
We walk through death and dying all the time.
We should be accustomed to it by now.
We should be paying homage to it every day.
We should honor the sacred scenes
being enacted all around us.
Life is sacred!
Death is at the door!
Do not miss the holy moments as they come upon us!
Pause with the acknowledgment
of gratitude and appreciation,
of wonder and respect for what has come,
has been
and is going as we watch--
as we are going as we watch--
and be thankful for it all!
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.
