  1. If your portfolio is exciting, you are probably doing it wrong. Boring is the strategy, not a flaw in it. So which is yours, exciting or effective?

  3. It’s in the Blood

    In 1539, a fugitive former-priest-turned-Anabaptist, in his seminal work “The Foundation,” penned the following words:

    “Christ is our fortress; patience our weapon of defense; the Word of God our sword. …Iron and metal spears and swords we leave to those who, alas, regard human blood and swine’s blood of well-nigh equal value.”

    So said Menno Simons, principal leader of the Protestant sect which then became known as the Mennonites.

    More than 500 years later, his words still resound with a mighty truth.

    At the risk of sounding morbid, it has to do with blood.

    While Menno specifically refers to the difference between human blood and that of an animal, his larger point is the “value” we place on the blood of another.

    My point is quite simple.

    Killing will not end through education, conflict resolution, or disarmament, though all of these are important and can help. Killing will end only when there is a fundamental shift in the mind and heart of those who kill.

    For how can you kill someone if you believe that their blood is just as valuable as your own?

    Let’s call it – for lack of a better term – bloodism.

    The other – their humanity, life, blood – is somehow less than I, and therefore, their humanity, life, blood, is not as valuable as my own. It becomes quite easy then to justify killing the other, ie. spilling his/her blood.

    The directors of death throughout history from every nation, tribe and religion have understood and disseminated this concept quite well. A person (and those like him/her) is described as having the wrong beliefs, the wrong skin color, the wrong gender, the wrong age, the wrong station in life, the wrong land, the wrong possessions, the wrong clothing, the wrong language —- the wrong blood. These others are not as valued as you are, the leaders of the macabre scream, though they couch their speech in terms such as vigilance, freedom, history, security, and truth.

    Then the killing begins.

    The Nazis did it to the Jews. Israelis do it to the Palestinians. Hutus did it to the Tutsis. Shiite do it to the Sunni. Palestinians do it to the Israelis. Sunni do it to the Shiite. Muslims do it to the Christians. Christians do it to the Muslims. This country does it to that country. That neighborhood does it to this neighborhood. This race does it to that race. That religion does it to this religion.

    And any one of a million other combinations.

    STOP!

    Do not allow your mind and heart to be filled with bloodism.

    We are made in the image of God.

    ALL of us.

    And that divine DNA resides in the very marrow of our bones and flows through our veins.

    It’s in the blood.

  9. The Silver Strand

    returning 
    to the car
    i see
    a silver strand
    intent on
    capturing me

    i was gone
    but a moment
    yet the spider
    did spin
    from the mirror
    across the window
    to lure
    me in

    it seems
    this small one
    dreams of
    bigger prey
    so too I
    if to my path
    I stay

    this bit
    of web
    is a
    flimsy thing
    but if
    I cast
    it not
    i snare
    nothing

  28. La paix du christianisme

    Chez les chrétiens, la paix, eirēnē en grec, héritière du shalom hébraïque, porte cette même idée de plénitude, mais elle est redéfinie autour d’un événement central, soit l’incarnation, la croix et la personne du Christ comme Prince de la Paix.

    Le trait le plus distinctif de la paix chrétienne est qu’elle n’est pas d’abord une réalisation ou une conquête spirituelle, mais un don gratuit reçu du Christ : « Je vous laisse la paix, je vous donne ma paix ; je ne vous la donne pas comme le monde la donne ». Cette précision « pas comme le monde la donne » est capitale : elle distingue une paix qui ne dépend pas des circonstances extérieures issues de l’absence de conflit, la sécurité et le confort, mais d’une paix qui subsiste même au cœur de la tribulation.

    Pour Paul, la paix chrétienne a une structure double, elle est verticale par la réconciliation de l’humanité avec Dieu, rendue possible par la croix, qui répare la rupture introduite par le péché. Elle est horizontale par la réconciliation entre les humains eux-mêmes.

    La paix n’est donc jamais purement intérieure, elle est intrinsèquement relationnelle et communautaire, comme dans le judaïsme, mais elle passe ici par la médiation d’une personne plutôt que par l’étude et la justice seules.

    Ainsi, la paix figure parmi les fruits de l’Esprit, aux côtés de l’amour, de la joie, de la patience. Cette catégorisation est significative. Un fruit ne se fabrique pas par la seule volonté, il mûrit d’une vie déjà greffée à une source plus grande. La paix chrétienne suppose donc une transformation intérieure progressive plutôt qu’une technique ou une discipline maîtrisable. On devient faiseur de paix, dont une paix agissante, comparable au radaf shalom juif ou la générosité et noblesse de cœur soufie.

    Chez les Pères du désert et les mystiques chrétiens, la paix se rapproche de la libération des passions désordonnées qui permet au cœur de se rendre disponible à la prière incessante. On y trouve une parenté frappante avec le nirvāṇa bouddhiste ou l’ataraxia stoïcienne, bien que la finalité reste ici l’union avec un Dieu personnel plutôt que l’extinction du désir en soi.

    Dans le sillage plus contemporain, par exemple Simone Weil, la paix chrétienne se comprend aussi comme attention, un consentement au réel, une disponibilité totale qui suspend le vouloir-saisir de l’ego. Cette paix rejoint, par un autre chemin, l’approche soufi, par un abandon actif plutôt qu’une résignation.

    Enfin, comme dans le judaïsme, le christianisme porte un horizon de paix cosmique et définitive avec le Royaume de Dieu. Mais la théologie chrétienne insiste sur une tension propre : cette paix est déjà et pas encore, inaugurée par le Christ, mais non encore pleinement accomplie, ce qui donne à l’existence chrétienne une qualité d’attente active, ni pur retrait contemplatif ni simple militantisme historique.

    En somme, la paix chrétienne se situe à un carrefour singulier parmi les traditions que nous avons parcourues. Comme le judaïsme, elle refuse de séparer paix et justice, et l’inscrit dans l’histoire. Comme le soufisme, elle passe par l’abandon amoureux et la médiation d’un Dieu personnel. Comme le bouddhisme, elle implique une libération des passions et de l’agitation intérieure. Toutefois, c’est une personne, non un principe ou un vide, qui est la paix, et qui la donne plutôt qu’elle ne se conquiert.

    Dans un monde où tout le monde parle de paix, est-ce que nous avons la même conception de celle-ci? Est-ce que les écarts expliqueraient en partie les conflits qui perdurent?

  30. The past is never dead. It’s not even past. All of us labor in webs spun long before we were born, webs of heredity and environment, of desire and consequence, of history and eternity.

    — William Faulkner, Requiem for a Nun

    We casually say "It's the end of an era!" as if we believed eras end in an instant. But those who remember live on, nostalgia is a force, and eras take generations to end (if ever).

  33. The Iron That Learns to Wait: On the Hard Years

    A smith folds iron through a drought that will not end, and in his patience a wider constellation opens — Javanese nrima ing pandum, Stoic prohairesis, Taoist water, Confucian burden, Sufi fire, Vedantic impermanence, Buddhist second arrow. Not how to escape the hard years, but how to be folded by them without breaking.

  34. Nos pensées et nos émotions

    Nous aimons croire que nos pensées et nos émotions sont uniquement générées par nous. Avec l’expérience, nous devons reconnaître qu’il faut du travail et l’entraînement de l’esprit pour savoir reconnaître celles-ci que nous croyions intimes, mais qui ne nous sont pas propres. Beaucoup d’image et de sensations nous sont dictées par la publicité, et, dans les faits, ils sont implantés en nous.

    Par l’entraînement de l’esprit, du travail et de la patience, il est possible de rejoindre notre vraie nature, notre chemin personnel.

    C’est simplement une démarche de réappropriation de notre pouvoir d’agir.

  36. Highway Adoption

    The truck ahead of me has a bumper sticker that says “Stay in your lane.”

    At first blush – good advice. But further introspection reveals a flaw. In truth, the lane I am currently in is not my own. Nor is the lane you are in yours either. None of us can lay claim to these streets. At least not individually. Contrary to popular belief, we are a collective.

    Perhaps a truer bumper sticker is the one that says “Share the road.”

    Namely, the entire road is for all. The lane I am in is not MY lane. It is available to anyone else who needs it. You are welcome in the lane I am in, and I hope that I am welcome in the one you are in.

    Alas, too often I forget this truth. I am too quick with my tongue or horn and too slow with a kind gesture.

    So come on over.

    You are welcome here in this lane as well.

    No schedule. No perceived deadline for my ETA. No stress or emotional attachment to the human construct of time. No amount of hubris or disdain.

    Nothing is worth the destruction of a hospitable spirit while one is driving.

  37. Today's reflection from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
    "Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience."
    Emerson wrote this as part of his broader Transcendentalist vision, the idea that nature is not just scenery, but a teacher. A mirror. A model for how to live. In nature, there is no rushing. There is no falling behind.
