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

Summary of Ordinary Life for May 24, 2024
* * *
Dear Ones -
This week in Ordinary Life I attempted to explain, or at least amplify on, what is meant by the phrases “authentic existence” and “the courage to be.” Though all teaching is somewhat autobiographical, this talk is especially so. I share how I was found by these phrases. In the process I talk about developmental psychology and, then, from a deconstructionist point of view, the ambiguity involved in ever knowing who we are. I see this ambiguity as hopeful. Then I talked about how I developed the phrase that such authentic and courageous living means being involved in the process of becoming centers of freedom and love.
That’s a brief summary of this week’s time in Ordinary Life.
The audio version of the talk has some differences from the text I spoke from. You can find the text of the talk, the presentation slides and the audio version of the talk using the links below.
