Our regular output is more a product of our habits than of our decisions. Or so they say. So pick something you wish you did well, and start by doing it frequently. Don’t worry about the quality. Don’t worry about the product. Habituate the process, and then once that machine is up and running, go ahead and make adjustments, add gears, and pour in more power. But first, get rolling.

Are We There Yet?
Aug 9
From time to time I get lost in my mind When thoughts let go of now and turn to meaning: A peek above the hedge to seek and find A bigger picture of life's path so fleeting. At times my passions mapped a path quite bold Across the landscape seen by eyes so young, But more and more now that I have grown older My visions of horizons come undone. For forty years my future was so certain; The path would blur but the compass point stayed clear. But now all roads are hidden by rain curtains, And far as I can tell my goal's no nearer Than when I first set out so long ago. Are roads and maps and trips an empty show?
Does objective truth exist? Does it matter?

Council Resolution
Feb 26
Resolved (64 yes, 7 no, 12 abstain):
While acknowledging with appreciation many of the exciting new initiatives that have been recently undertaken;
the Clergy would also like to express sincere reservations and concerns with the seemingly rapid change in direction of the Bryn Athyn College and the General Church resulting from decisions and actions being made without sufficient prior counsel and discussions;
and we appeal to the bishop to provide leadership in implementing processes that will actively involve the Clergy in the review of past decisions that appear to stray from the Charter Purposes and meaningfully include the Clergy in the development of future plans.
