Lost in Resentment

ORDINARY LIFE - Thoughts and Ideas to Help You Live a Happier Life ===================================================

 

Summary of July 1, 2012

 

===================================================

 

Dear Folks - If you follow these "life talks" I give in Ordinary Life, you are aware that I've been guided the past few weeks by reading and responding to Henri Nouwen's wonderful book The Return of the Prodigal Son. Last week we looked in depth at the younger son. This week we look at the older son who seems left outside, lost in resentment. One application of this to us, our culture and out world is how much damage is done by those who separate themselves from the human community for whatever reason. The full text I used is below. The audio version, to be found on the Ordinary Life website is somewhat different. You can find the presentations slides I used on the website as well

 

Much love,
