May 26: When to Stand Up, When to Sit Down...

Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel

Our world is in a shift that is shaking us to our very core.  Even Mother Earth is quivering and rumbling.  Memorial Day is one way we honor our veterans.  Yet, we all are veterans of a challenging, sometimes scary, place called life.  In Thich Nhat Hanh's book, Fear: Essential Wisdom for Getting Through the Storm, he writes, "Rooted in the moment, we have the capacity to restore balance and happiness..."  Knowing when we need to stand up and when to sit down, when to speak up and when to shut up helps.  Balance.  Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sherry's Reasoning:


 
Reasons to Go Within (for Wednesday Night Discussion):
 
1. What was your "A-ha!" moment from the Reasoning?
2. What makes boundaries most challenging for you personally?
3. What are your opinions on the idea of setting boundaries?  Are they really needed?  Does the concept of fences help with understanding of the purpose of boundaries?
