Hi John,

Truely beautiful. I have never heard spirit expressed in such a way... and I am touched. It is the truest lesson to 'Know thyself'... And this entry to me resonates strongly with this understanding.

As to introverts. They are often the ones who end up best at the social interactions, because we have to work at it. Extraverts start out naturally good at it and so don't need to put in the work, which can mean they only end up moderately good. And the balance of introverts and extraverts in the different professions can be surprising. Most actors are introverts (this could be because playing a role gives protection or because they relate most to the cast not the audience). I liked the sermon John.

The phrase "hide and seek with God" is actually a reference to a reading that was earlier in the service. You can read the piece it refers to at http://www.uua.org/spirituallife/worshipweb/readings/submissions/5953.shtml As far as the tech note... I hadn't actually thought of that, to be honest. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Namaste. Hello Martin & Welcome!

I am relieved, how odd, that now I know others think and feel the same! I discovered my beliefs through travel and worship, tried religions and failed experiences.

I may not resist the temptation to snatch and use it in my own ramblings. Quick tech note: Aggregators will display the first two or so lines of text. In your case that valuable space was hijacked by your picture captions. It would be worth avoiding since you only have your title and those two lines to raise someone's interest. Martin Greetings,

]]> Comment on Management Philosophy & Spirituality by John http://www.thepagelessbook.com/2008/06/20/management-philosophy-spirituality/#comment-671 John Mon, 30 Jun 2008 01:23:54 +0000 http://www.thepagelessbook.com/?p=371#comment-671 Hello Mark, Thanks for the Kudos. :-) Hello M.C. My immediate manager at work deserves much of the credit for this post... He's the one to inspire me to try working towards management. I don't think I've ever encountered a company with truly effective upper management - the further away you get from the source of your income, the more objectified customers and lower level employees become. Your district manager may just be reflecting that disconnect of upper management from the day to day operations... However, I'm just conjecturing - I don't personally know the man or your work situation. As far as my talk at TUUC this morning - I'm very glad you enjoyed it. I'll be posting more thoughts on the experience tomorrow, along with the text of the sermon. Being a thought provoking minister is my goal, so I'm quite flattered. Thank you. Namaste to you both. Hello Mark,

I know what I need to do to integrate myself into my UU family - I just haven't spent the time or energy to do so. It isn't lack of effort on my congregation's part... it's me. However, I should also point out that I *do* feel like family here in the UU blogosphere. :-) Hello Evan, So personal integration is dependent upon how we incorporate new lessons into our world view? I think I like that... Hello Kay, Thank you, Thank you... As I mentioned in a comment for another post, I've been a slacker. I need to get back into reading and commenting on other's blogs - yours included. Namaste. Hello Shelby,

So... I have comments to answer from back in May. *sigh* I am such a slacker. Thank you Evan, Mark, Shelby, and Julian for your words of encouragement. Also, as it's the first time you are posting, I'd like to welcome American Alligator and Genesis Bible to the Pageless Book. I'm getting back into the swing of things here... slowly, surely, and in my own time. :-) Namaste, all. Hello Everybody!
