– Just completed AoH with Labour Educators. A gift to be part of such movements and with friends who are learning at edges.

– Great ride from Toronto to Port Elgin with Lynn (CLC) and Esther. Talking about “democracy deficit” and the case for organized labour.

– On my way to Port Elgin, Ontario to begin a week of work with Canadian Labour Congress. And I hope a piece of Thanksgiving pumpkin pie.

– Living this — We project meaning upon symbols, and in so doing, come to understand more of our inner condition that creates outer reality.

– Cafe Zinger Bowen AoH — Thomas Brackett on stretching: “What would it take for us to experience the chasm stretch of not-knowing as dance?”

– Cafe Zinger, Bowen Island — Chris Corrigan on emergence: “When everybody takes something that nobody came with.”

– People arriving on Bowen for AoH. Beginning tonight with a cafe on the stretch of today that makes it important for us to learn together.

Gifts of Circle - Question Cardsasd
Gifts of Circle is 30 short essays divided into 4 sections: 1) Circle's Bigger Purpose, 2) Circle's Practice, 3) Circle's First Requirements, and 4) Circle's Possibility for Men. From the Introduction: "Circle is what I turn to in the most comprehensive stories I know -- the stories of human beings trying to be kind and aware together, trying to make a difference in varied causes for which we need to go well together. Circle is also what I turn to in the most immediate needs that live right in front of me and in front of most of us -- sharing dreams and difficulties, exploring conflicts and coherences. Circle is what I turn to. Circle is what turns us to each other."

Question Cards is an accompanying tool to Gifts of Circle. Each card (34) offers a quote from the corresponding chapter in the book, followed by sample questions to grow your Circle hosting skills and to create connection, courage, and compassionate action among groups you host in Circle.

In My Nature
is a collection of 10 poems. From A Note of Beginning: "This collection of poems arises from the many conversations I've been having about nature. Nature as guide. Nature as wild. Nature as organized. I remain a human being that so appreciates a curious nature in people. That so appreciates questions that pick fruit from inner being, that gather insights and intuitions to a basket, and then brings the to table to be enjoyed and shared over the next week."

Most Mornings is a collection of 37 poems. I loved writing them. From the introduction: "This collection of poems comes from some of my sense-making that so often happens in the morning, nurtured by overnight sleep. The poems sample practices. They sample learnings. They sample insights and discoveries. They sample dilemmas and concerns."
