LOL.... I also liked Lisa's site - thanks for the link. I agree we can be teachers of god wherever we are. And to answer Godless, by all means please continue to perform compassionate acts and use GOD as a metaphor. For me though, the mystery of GOD has added many dimensions to my own thinking and experiences of life. Corinne, Thanks for such a nice article. i don’t think I could have said it better. LOL….

It's like the missionary who says that he is doing God's work by feeding the poor -- those impoverished by alleged "Acts of God" such as famine or drought. It's as if the only reason they do acts of kindness is to appease a god of some sort, a rather cynical motive. Unless <i>God</i> is a metaphor of the best in humanity, the term does not fit those who <em>voluntarily</em> perform compassionate acts.

Wow. Amazing. It's exactly how I feel. Some people think what I do is difficult, but to me it is as easy as breathing, and like you, scooping out potatoes would be difficult for me!!!
