What do I want? --17th Sunday in Ordinary Time

(77) Our question: What do I want?  Thomas Moore (Author of Care of the Soul): "We must look at our deepest longings and cravings, eventhe messy ones, not as errors to be cured, but as the soul desperately crying out for what it needs to feel alive."   We talk about dreamwork.

Unexpected Rewards in my Life - 13th Sunday

(73) 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time When have I been rewarded for doing the right thing, when I didn’t expect a reward? What is the rock and hard place that I’m in (or have been in?)   In the Bible there are seven stories of barren women: three of the four matriarchs, Sarah (Genesis 11:30), Rebekah (25:21), and Rachel (29:31); Hannah, mother of the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 1-2); the anonymous wife of Manoah, mother of Samson (Judges 13); and the “great woman of Shunem,” also called the Shunammite, an acolyte of the prophet Elisha and Elizabeth.   In the Bible, barrenness refers to the physical inability to conceive, but spiritually, it symbolizes a woman who experiences waiting, disgrace, and unrequited longing. To be a barren woman is to be forced to wait for a deliverance that only the Lord can provide. It is a powerful metaphor.    Ilia Delio, her book about Jung-- The Not Yet God, Carl Jung, Teilhard de Chardin and the Relational Whole [https://maryknollsociety.org/the-not-yet-god-the-not-yet-god-carl-jung-teilhard-de-chardin-and-the-relational-whole-ilia-delio/]   More about Death cafes [https://deathcafe.com/deathcafe/22935/]   More about Marie Louise Von Franz [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie-Louise_von_Franz]  Sunday Readings [https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/062826.cfm] Thank you for listening!
