The first of several poems related to dying
by David Dunn 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

I pray that the poetry we share might help us find our way into the light of ending, completion and discovery. David (with special gratitude to Nelson, Elaine, Lynda and John) FLY AWAY, FLY AWAY, FLY AWAY HOME With neither will to linger nor heart for flight, your eyes betray the time of tears. Not even the Maker of the universe can save you, when you cling so steadfastly to life. Can you see within the darkness the wonder beyond heaven, or are you still too body-bound to look beneath the surface for the light? My heart breaks every time you stumble on your lonely, rock-strewn path. Why do wings come so late when all is ruined and smashed to dust? Pray do not fall into despair, dear friend; the dark brown earth can not hold you. Go deep inside yourself to find the path that leads beyond the mind’s horizon. When you have finished life upon the earth trust the venture of departing. Silence calls you to begin the ending that is the labor of your final birth. Eternity will only happen when death turns into light. So run, deny the tyranny of life; rise above the fury of the flesh. The One who made the worlds revolve receives you. Return to the promise before you were conceived. Take heart in the blessing of our sorrow. Go in peace, the time of tears is ended. Watch over all the weary souls who follow. Fly away, fly away, fly away home. < 11-08-19 for Terry Wright — "Mystery, possibility, and the power to choose" David Dunn 740 S Alton Way 9B Denver, CO 80247 720-314-5991 dmdunn1(a)gmail.com

I am interested.When can we start? Maybe use the Global Schedule somehow??

The Week is a group experience to help us see what’s coming and what we can do about it. " In 2014, Dick West organized a book study on Reinventing Organizations that a number of us participated in. The author, Frederic Laloux, was focused on how to create really "participatory" organizations that operated from a high level of consciousness. Now (see below) he and his wife have created an approach to release people's energy to take on the changes and challenges we're facing over the next several decades, especially related to climate.

The Week is a group experience to help us ... The fuller announcement is copied below. The idea is 1. to get a group together, in an organization, a family, a church, a neighborhood to go on a journey of looking ahead, seeing the challenges, letting them sink in and coming to some realistic sense of vocation in relation to this time in history. 2. Spend 3 90 minute sessions together over the course of a single week (video presentation and conversation) 3. move on from there . . . I am looking for a couple of people to try this out together and see how it works. The cost is minimal to organizations and no charge for friends, family, neighborhood, church Jim Wiegel (http://partnersinparticipation.com/james-wiegel/) The unknown is what is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that. Unknown is what is. Accept that it's unknown, and it's plain sailing.

FW: latest poem-a midnight poem creation by Nelson Stover
by Lynda C 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

Ever the poet, writer, and spirit guide, Nelson shared his latest creation from the “throne” of his hospital bed at his home in Greensboro, NC, where he is in Hospice care. Round-the -clock care is with him and Elaine. After reading and re-reading this amazing poetic life journey we all are on, John and I phoned him for a brief conversation and asked if he was ready for a song as part of our care for him. We sang and read “Dawns the World.” Part of his bedtime routine is creating an agenda about what he wanted to think about, not worry about, during his sleepless times. A good idea for most of us! He reports he is not in pain, his body just isn’t working well. He and Elaine are gratefully appreciating your notes and calls. They would be ready for other song visits, reflections or expressions of care. With care for this family, Lynda and John From: Nelson Stover <Nstover(a)emergingecology.org> Date: Saturday, March 4, 2023 at 12:30 PM To: Lynda Cock <lynda860(a)outlook.com>, Karen Snyder <karen.snyder10(a)gmail.com> Subject: latest poem See attached/ -- F.

Joyous Participation: A journey toward wholeness
by Karen Snyder 05 Mar '23

05 Mar '23

Connie Reemtsma has just published another book called Joyous Participation: A journey toward wholeness. You may recognize the name of her editor, John Burbidge, and the person doing cover design and layout, Robert Lanphear. You can find the book at Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Joyous-Participation-Journey-Toward-Wholeness/dp/B0B…) The site describes the book as follows: Joyous Participation: A Journey Toward Wholeness explores that part of life most of us try to avoid—our final years. Sharing insights from the lives of five people—her own included—as well as Jungian psychology, contemplative theology, and more, 91-year-old Connie Reemtsma challenges us to see aging not as a decline to be mourned but as a time of fulfillment and an opportunity for growth. In so doing, she beckons us to shed our ego-driven selves and discover our true core. As we create our last decades "as a time of fulfillment and an opportunity for growth”, we will resonate with her words. Peace, Karen Snyder Troxel on behalf of the Global Archives Team PS. The Publications tab of the Global Archives has a list of some 200+ books colleagues have written through the years. The list includes two of Connie's books, Rob Work’s online books, and many online papers and memoirs colleagues have shared as well. https://icaglobalarchives.org/resources/
