Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. September 27, 2015. I’ve been listening to some of the coverage of the Bishop of Rome’s visit to the US and questions about women’s ordination, laity, etc. in the Roman Catholic Church. In both cases (women and laity), speakers cite examples of changes that are occurring, of women being empowered to do certain things, serve in new roles, etc. To unfold. It’s about tolerating the discomfort and impulse to interject, jump back in. This past ...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. Surrendering one’s liberty – Ignatius and the Buddha. October 18, 2014. For the past week or so, I’d been anxiously watching my email for information on the next steps (hoping that I’d gotten that far) in my application for a training program in 2015. I knew they had all of my materials so what’s the delay I thought? Every day was a trial as I watched my email, minute by minute or so it seemed. What is personal liberty anyway? Over the nex...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. Am still in the landing process a week later. July 21, 2015. Am still in the landing process a week later , wrote my friend who, like I, has just returned from the ten week spiritual guidance/retreat giving course in Wales. Straining never brings me closer to anything, I have found. It can’t improve my vision so I can see the ground from the plane any sooner. Nor can it enable me to see into my own future. St Beuno's Outreach. Occasional t...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. Judgment, memory, and the pillar of fire. November 27, 2014. As I was thinking about how hard it sometimes is to forgive myself, to accept my shortcomings, to let go of the past and get on with the new, the image of God. As a pillar of cloud (by day) and fire (by night) leading the Israelites out of Egypt came to mind. Putting it another way, God really has no memory and God doesn’t judge. St Beuno's Outreach. Tony Equale's Blog. God In Al...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. Sustaining Focus Gift and Commitment. August 29, 2015. In the past couple of weeks, the clouds of my future have begun to thin (a bit) and choices (perhaps) are beginning to appear. Desiring to choose in response to invitation and not anxiety, I nevertheless sometimes panic and wondering what in heck am I doing? And then, I’m reminded of the importance of focusboth choice of focus for my life and then sustaining it. Sustaining focus. N...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. Lent…about love not sin. February 16, 2015. Perhaps, in the spirit of Appreciative Inquiry I wrote about earlier, I’m anticipating Lent as an opportunity to grow in my ability to love, not be penitent for my shortcomings.Love certainly was the core of Jesus life and teaching that we are asked to emulate. My horizon isn’t the grand horizon of Easter but a much closer horizonthat of the next question, the next request, the next interruption.

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. And in another nursery far, far away. December 23, 2014. Some people consider that God’s primary self-revelation is in and through creation and our experience of/in that creation. And that all written and oral scriptures are secondary revelations, the efforts of people, over time and in every culture, to interpret, understand, perceive, express, construct a coherent story of that experience. About what’s happening in another nursery. How d...

Occasional thoughts on religion, textiles, language, and science. April 27, 2015. This week’s To the Best of Our Knowledge on NPR had a series of segments on self-tracking. The increasing tendency we have to track footsteps, sleep patterns, calories consumed and expended, heart rate, etc., etc., etc. And not just tracking the data, but turning it into visual images and music. Fitbit is the brand we hear about most often, but of course, there’s a tracker for every need. But what about our spiritual life?
