Swan Lake 07/09/2019 — Swan Lake, Iris Gardens, Sumter, South Carolina
We do what is called for in each situation as it arises
and drop into emptiness, stillness, silence between innings
waiting for clarity, watching for what arises, emerges, appears
to catch our eye and compel us to action in the service of our
original nature, our innate virtues (What we do best and enjoy
doing most), our inherent imagination and our intrinsic intuition. Catching the rhythm and flow of time and place,
here and now, to live and to do in sync with the need of the moment and what we have to offer in the eternal dance of life and being.

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.
