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?
The thing that matters most to me today is synchronicity. Coincidence that matters. That is built into the framework of existence, without which nothing would be. Which is to suggest that nothing happens for a reason and the old Taoists were right 5,000 years BCE in saying all of this is the result of “circumstances begetting circumstances.” Synchronicity is in charge of the universe. And life IS a beach and time is the ocean, and the beat goes on, and on, and on…
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.
