“People don’t want drills. They want holes.”
I have::
three cold sores on my lip
one tight chest
one slumped human frame
multiple coughs
water drinking by the gallon
One big-enlarged-bursting-encouraged-soul.
Norway was great
Iceland was great
both bursting my soul
excitement
fulfilment
purpose
mission
love it love it
but
the
forthcoming
a week-end
in Nottingham University
forthcoming
I yearn for
..... the forthcoming
a challenge like
never before
unknown beautiful humans
who, I know, I will love.
I know they will stretch me
..... it is always the forthcoming
with me ..............
I have just posted
Pipturesque
from Norway
from Iceland
on my Facebook.
Here are
Pipturesque
from Iceland.
I am returning.
I want more.
The more you give
the more I receive.
The more I am drained -
the more adrenaline
the more time
the more energy
- I grow more (i)
- I see more (ii)
A caterpillar looks nothing like a butterfly
but one develops fro the other. (i)
I am blind and I want to see (ii)
I ended my first book with this quote from the Bible::
'Seek the
SHALOM
of the city
where I have sent you
because in it's
SHALOM
you will find your own
SHALOM.'
And this is what SHALOM
is all about::
S h a l o m.
Hebrew word usually rendered 'peace' in English versions of the Bible.
a For the individual - a totally intergrated life of health of body,
heart and mind, attuned to nature, open to others, in joy with God.
b Between persons - sharing, mutuality and love.
c In community or society - justice, dignity, independence and
freedom, harmony and reciprocity,
the contentment with 'enough' that all may have 'enough'.
It is the opposite to oppression, violence, and selfishness;
it means man/woman as a caring trustee of creation,
having ended exploitation, indifference and irresponsibility.
This is something of the Shalom of God
'which passes all understanding',
the total well-being he wills for man - woman and the cosmos,
the goal of his mission, the content of his reign.
