...... I am at the 'Can Opener' conference in Dunford House in Midhurst, W Sussex ............ we are opening the Can ...... it is a conference looking at the Christian and Spiritual issues within the ymca in England ........ funny .... I was born and always lived in England and yet I feel NOT English but of the world.
It was a slow day at first as I was in recovery from a busy week and then a slow drive here around the M25 which could be described as a 'car park' rather than a freeway!
We are opening the can in terms of looking at the issues around a Christian Movement which struggles to be and live out a distinctive faith.
I heard here that you can buy a shirt for £3 at a/s-da ..... confusing google .... who are owned by W-all stinking mart who rip off the poor around the world so you can buy trousers for £8 too.
Anita Rodick told us at Greenbelt that to shop at that supermarket ........ means we rob the poorest of the world so we get cheap clothes or/and food!
Working in hostels with homeless humans I am hearing constant words like these;
"I hate Christmas ......... "
It does me good to hear things like this and feel it.
I feel ok ....... but a little angry and yearning about life ...... I suppose it is about the rich and the poor and I am rich and feel the poor ........
He who was rich became poor .........
