[Oe List ...] Happy birthday to me

[Rod Rippel via OE]

Well Herman, As you know, celebrating a birthday isn’t just about the passage of time.  It is a marking of the significant events of your life-journey and of becoming conscious that the Universe absolves you for your entire presence here.  That’s worth celebrating.  Congratulations on your 70th (or 71st) trip around our Sun.  May you have many more and it’s all significant!  Rod Rippel

Subject: [Oe List ...] Happy birthday to me

I turned 70 today, seems worth mentioning. It's a big milestone for me. I'll end my law practice in December and devote myself entirely to issues of ecology, culture and justice. I get this feeling my life is about to be turned on it's end, but I don't know how. 

It was so nice to see so many of you at Betty Pesek's memorial, to do the Daily Office again for the first time in 40 years, and to remember Betty and so many others..

I feel that we of OE still have something great to do together. Jack Gilles, Marshall Jones and I discussed at length during our time at Betty's memorial 

Al Lingo has a phenomenal memory for order history detail. We listened to him for hours.

While I'm writing, former wife Joy's house in Denver was flooded in freak flash flood in June, she and her husband are recovering. My two sons Nate (born in the Order) and Brendan are well and live in Denver.

Best wishes to those who will gather in Chicago this week. I'll be in New York working activities related to the UN's new sustainable development goals that will be adopted at a UN Summit on Sept 25-27. In October I'll be at the World Parliament of Religions in Utah and will lead a session on ecological civilization (a small session). 

Grace and peace,

Herman
