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

<< 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....
