Be Good for Goodness Sake

Imagine being in a peaceful, beautiful, tranquil setting away from the buzz of life. At the end of a gravel path lined by flowers and stretches of flowing greenery, there is a lovely B&B with a winding porch, an inviting swing, and a majestic Willow tree swaying in the breeze. You step into the freshness and are greeted by a Host that will soon create amazing aromas, appetites and experiences. You know not what to expect and are timelessly taken on a journey of awareness, understanding, and perhaps even transformation. You see a piece of yourself in each guest: the elder, wise gentleman, Ray; the hard core business woman, Alison; the hopeful Matthew who is finding his way; and, young Madilyn and her baby who are navigating the new. And, even the Weeping Willow tree who views all arrivals and departures, and embraces each. Come sit at our table. This is OUR World. How will we choose to show up in it? What will we choose to see in each other? How are we influenced by external differences or our own beliefs? In parable, Be Good for Goodness Sake, is an exploration of these questions and of who we are as individuals living in a collective and often confusing world. The compass of life and how we choose to live it does not point in one direction all of the time. That is perfectly okay. It is actually unavoidable. The distinction of how you live in Our World is purely how you choose to. Now is your time to reflect on your story.
