Julie--

There is a Footprint in the Wind/sm I have yet to post, which says much of
what I hear you saying:

 << G-d is beyond your imagination. But G-d is within reach of a small
 << child's hug.

Seems to me we're experiencing the same G. Who was it who wrote of the 6
blind men describing an elephant? Sometimes we are touching the trunk,
sometimes the side....

A friend, colleague and former client of mine (whom I believe lurks on
this list) said ever so gently a long time ago that the work I did had a
"hidden agenda." That was a wake up call for me to strive for greater
authenticity - for bringing my whole self present - when talking about
the work I do. So I now speak about Spirit, about the yearning for and
calling for Spirit into our work and our work places. I speak more about
inner work, connection, trust and compassion than I do about God,
however, as that has more resonance in a public forum for me.

Many rocks have ripples in them.
