Four
frigid wisdom seekers witnessed the polar vortex in the library meeting room.
There was even a brief discussion about climate change (it must have been the
room). Care giving also was part of the evening discussion. Our thoughts and
prayers went to Scott on his wife’s surgery, and to Eric who will be spending
some time taking care of his father.
In
the SFG book, we read one section: “The Approach to Wisdom.”
The
experiments to try for the coming week are:
Experiment: Do the
right thing when the timing is right, even if by appearances things may seem to
be a bit worse at first. Use wisdom to evaluate and judge fruits at all levels.
Examples:
Give up a habit you have been wanting to
eliminate even though at first it may make you very uncomfortable; or,
communicate an emotion you have been keeping bottled up inside you, even though
at first it may seem to weaken your relationship to the person you tell.
Experiment: Eliminate
shortcuts to wisdom which employ a misuse of intellect and logic. Select
something which your intellect tells you will likely lead to good results in
the physical plane (e.g., diet or a certain way of behaving with others).
Probably it's something you have been thinking about doing for some
time, but you already know how it will turn out. Now try living it.
