Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

My grandmother used to say it's so important to remember that the majority of people in this world are good. Might tweak that a little, but I do agree--and it's wonderful medicine to be deliberately in the company of such folk. Here's one such man--Seizan: all heart. Total privilege to know him.
Wonderful Seizan Ludzia, Upaya staff member, graduates from Upaya's Chaplaincy Training Program. Among many things, serves the unsheltered, those grieving, and so many more. He also brings joy to all who come to Upaya.

What we see all around us isn't what is making us cower; it is turning away from the insanity and trying to escape into a separate peace.

It's true! I think I recommended this book two dozen times last week, to two dozen different individuals. Here, I recommend it again.
Have received so many recent communications on how STANDING AT THE EDGE is serving as a guide for meeting this tangled time. Indeed, it's subtitle: "finding freedom where fear and courage meet.''

how do you know a poem is done? first you write the poem. then put it into an egg without cracking its shell. then plant the egg. then, thirty years later, when the tree is full of singing birds, you'll have forgotten entirely about this question.

I turned away from drinking in the firehose of bad news last night to take my telescope out to a dark clearing in the forest. It was a bit cold, 4 degrees F, but stars shined bright overhead.🔭🧪

It is not easy to keep myself from being dragged into the rushing currents of anger and grief that are running through my heart right now. Others must feel the same. Yet these very feelings press me forward into action. Meet me there.
