					<description><![CDATA[Amedeo Simonetti Wikimedia Commons There is an ongoing tension that we are caught in, yet hardly ever aware of: the tension between our attempts to co-opt life into our personal dreams, goals and projects, and life’s own unfolding field of participation. The irony is that we enter the world as a participant in it &#8211; [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Angelo Tomasi, Wikimedia Commons There’s a way of being that we almost never name. Not because it’s rare. But because it’s so constant that it escapes our notice. Before we analyse anything, before we form an opinion, before we decide what something is, there is already a quiet participation happening. A kind of being-with. You’re [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We live in an age of naming. By Jan van Eyck Public Domain Everything must be identified, categorized, assessed, optimized, diagnosed, explained. We are encouraged to constantly ask not merely ‘what we are experiencing’, but what category the experience belongs to. Is it anxiety or intuition? Trauma or oversensitivity? Burnout or laziness? Attachment issues or [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There is a verse from the Bible that many of us are very familiar with: Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. Mathew 7:7 For most of my life, I think I unconsciously interpreted this in a fairly transactional way. You ask [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Grace is not something that most of us ever think about. It’s not one of those words or ideas that enters our daily conversations. But in quieter moments &#8211; when things feel heavy, or when we can no longer hold everything together &#8211; something in us is already reaching for it. It’s not an idea or a belief.

					<description><![CDATA[This might not always be obvious but&#160;a tension often arises&#160;the moment we begin to speak about God. There is, on the one hand, a danger&#160;in defining&#160;God too clearly&#160;even though we might do it in the name of meaningful discussion &#8211; and that danger is that&#160;we risk reducing what cannot be contained. On the other hand, [&#8230;]]]></description>

You see, before I see you, hear you, or touch you, I am already in relationship with you.&#160;Just as I am already in relationship with the whole world&#160;&#8211; with the air, the ground, the trees and the animals [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sometimes, the scariest, most threatening place to be in is… Our mind Because that’s where our ‘demons’ seem to hide and are ever ready to reveal themselves. That’s where the courtroom with judge, jury and prosecutor are in full flight. That’s where our stories are crafted with incredible speed and unparalleled catastrophizing.

					<description><![CDATA[Your body is where—and how—you experience the world. Have you noticed? Without your body, there would be no world to experience at all. But your body is not an instrument that merely houses your senses or your brain. It is the very field in which all perception, reflection, judgment, reasoning, abstraction, and analysis take place.
