Terri MacKenzie wrote a new post, Mother's Day 2016 10 years, 1 month ago
This brief blog credits mothers and Mother Earth, but focuses on the stars that gave birth to both, and to the entire cosmos. It reflects on our place as the “missing link” in the evolution toward authentic humanity.

I LOVE this focus Terri!

Terri, I loved the way you took us back in time through the usual mother’s day nurturers – not this – not this – to the stars. I guess the last time I imaged being so nurtured by a star was when Tinker Bell waved her magic wand! Then, on to the surprise – “we ARE the missing link”. I hope to remember that one when it’s needed. And, much gratitude for your Pope Francis and his encyclical – read every word.

An authentic humanity, calling for a new synthesis – YES!

Thank you, Orla, for this very inspiring and hope-giving paper! Just think what could happen if all Jesuit institutions took your lead! (And then all other institutions!) Congratulations, and may the metanoia experienced by your students be a meaningful reward for all your efforts! It’s had a positive effect on me.

Great, i am glad you like it 🙂 It is a very interesting way to give voice to the environment, very inspiring as a storytelling exercise. What would our environment say to us when we are going for a walk ?
