You Will Never Find Peace By Taking Sides in their Games

Today I will speak of possibility -- the possibility of what can be.

Our news is filled with conflict. Political battles. War. Terrorist attacks. Senseless violence. Predatory economics. Dogmatic doctrines that promote separation.

What Do You Want?

Forgive me if I ramble a little today. Several random thoughts running through me that may or may not prove related.

First, my recent silence. I know I go through spurts when I don't have much to say, but this period was motivated less by a lack of inspiration than by my own questioning what I was doing.

This year took off like gangbusters, but suddenly the energy to continue offering training events dissipated. Maybe I have attention deficit syndrome. Or maybe that inner voice was telling me I should offer something more.

Have you ever tried to balance a rock on another one at impossible angles?

It's all about holding a space where they can align with each other's energies, just like when building community.

What Is Our Responsibility to Each Other?

February 20, 2009 by john dennison

So many people are going through such difficult times. Losing their health, their homes, their jobs, even those they love.

What is our responsibility to them? Even if we don't have the ability to fix it, do we have a duty to try? After all, many of us feel compassion for them and want to ease their suffering.

On the other hand, we know that it is of their own creation (remember, we create it all). So who are we to interfere with what they have created to be experienced?
