Don’t have a plan! By all means, do not have to have a plan! All thought out from every angle, the brain child of reason and logic, carefully crafted and put into place. What does logic know of psyche? Do they ever talk shop and trade secrets over coffee and donuts? Nod in passing? AttendContinue reading “December 13, 2015”

The power of perspective cannot be overstated. How we see what we look at makes all the difference. And how we see when we look at our seeing–at what we see and how we evaluate it, so that we evaluate our evaluations–is the most important place to examine our perspective regarding how we are seeingContinue reading “November 20, 2025”

Meister Eckhart (1260-1328) said, “The last leave-takingis leaving God for God.” Eckhart was a German Catholic who was found guilty of heresy and died (perhaps murdered) before his sentence was served. It takes a heretic to see/speak the truth, it seems.The leave-taking I have in mind is leaving the God of the Bible and theologyContinue reading “May 16, 2025 – B”
