Glory--

Thank you for your kind note.

 << the ideal story would include and transcend any existing
 << polarities - IMHO.

 << So my own question is seeking its answer in me... and I think the
stories
 << that move me the most are ones where a whole group shifts in some new,
 << interesting or surprising way....

 << It may be the entire org or a sub-group but it's this action of
 << exploring/deciding/acting, consciously and intelligently, together that
 << really excites me. I also believe the mini-narratives within this frame
 << (where people have ah ha moments or emotional breakthroughs) are very
 << important to tell as well because they give hope and heart to others.

Teilhard is for me, too, one of my teachers--I always get my thinking
exploded reading his work. So I enjoyed the Teilhard-Atlee poem a lot.

So it is no surprise that these stories you mention are the ones I have in
mind (and heart) when I ask about stories.

What are your favorite stories of this kind, Glory? I want to have some of
that hope raised in me that you talk about so well....

                              :-Doug.
