One little goal setting meeting can lead to big changes.  We shall see.  At this time we know one thing is changing-how some of us see our mostly (but not all) white group.   I and others are looking in the mirror wondering if we have been blind to our white privilege and if there is more we can do to have meaningful multiracial participation in our Metanoia Peace Community.  It wasn't racial integration that I had proposed-but it seems right on to see diversity in all its' colors and stripes.      

Frodo has a very broad spiritual background that embraces many traditions and centers on female divine imagery and women's experience.  Frodo visited us on Valentine's day this year and brought a valentine message of divine love through the experience of trees and water.   Many of us checked in as to what messages we gained from meditating on a tree within our visual distance.  How lovely to hear each person find a message in the tree that was about something especially relevant to that person.  What a refreshing focus to consider the metaphor in the bible of water as the Divine in contrast to a strict father image heavily relied on in Christian traditions.I will find the verses she used and post them here later.If you wish to learn more about Frodo-you can visit her organization SIster Spirit home.teleport.com/~sistersp/
