A.R.E. Meeting for 7/11/16

This week we finished the chapter on Cooperation in the A Search for God Book I.

In the Experiments book, we read to the top of page 24.

The two experiments, if you choose to try them:

 1.  Take upon self a new responsibility for helping some other person.  Don't try to make decisions for that person or do things for him that he needs to be doing, but take on a sense of responsibility for loving and caring about that person, even though it may be a burden (time-wise, energy-wise or otherwise).

 2.  Work on relating to others with kindness.  Especially focus on speaking kindly.  Record those instances where you were able to replace an impulse to speak harshly or thoughtlessly with kind words  Record as well, without a sense of self-condemnation, those instances where greater kindness than you expressed would have been helpful.

We decided to assign leaders for each of the coming months.  Of course, the month you are assigned can always be changed.
