Podcast Notes

The Saturday Service —
08:00-0:8:10 Reports from the committee dedicated to watching the mud settle.
08:10-08:20 Edutitarg, Backward ways of doing gratitude.
08:20-08:30 “No one heals themselves by hurting another.” – St. Ambrose
08:30-08:40 Treat yourself as kindly as you would treat an 11-year-old
08:40-08:50 Review
08:50-09:00 Transition to donut hour

Shapeable as a block of wood.
Receptive as a valley.
Clear as a glass of water.
Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles?
Can you remain unmoving until the right action arises by itself?
The master does not seek fulfillment.
Not seeking, not expecting, but present and welcoming the outcome of all things.
–
Lao-Tsu

Gratitude = Thankfulness — Complaints

Why do people shout?
To make up for the distance of their hearts.
