Religious and spiritual poem by parish poet Peter Menkin: What the spirit of Church does: transformation, move to humility... This more recent poem describes humility, an experience and outcome of Church. I have thought about what Church means to me, and also what I mean to Church. Not so much in the greater sense of the entire Church, but how my Church I attend has brought the experience and teaching to me in the spiritual sense. This as a part of the larger Church, which indicates some truths about the engagement and its relationship. I hope this isn't too heady a way of discussing the subject. The poem is more direct and simple.

 

Lemme tell ya a story about humility earned.

 

SO...some of you may remember that I switched over to #4 brass screws recently. Now, in hard-mounting a pickup there's a cost/benefit ratio with the pilot hole. The smaller the hole, the tighter the screw fits and (at least in my imagination) the more solid the transfer of vibration.

 

This is the whole diminishing returns thing I was talking about.

 

SO...when I mounted these pickups I used the brass screws, but I made the pilot holes so small that the screws (being soft and brass) began to deform as I drove them until the heads sheared off and I had to extract them much like removing a canine tooth from a screaming...let's say, "patient."

 

This quite aggravated me, so I decided to get some steel button-head hex screws and give this job what-for! And tonight I stripped my steel 1/16" hex driver with these screws still not quite driven.

 

I can't tell if the screws themselves are too deformed for extraction, but if I can get them out with a new driver tomorrow I'll drill bigger pilot holes and stop being so obstinate.

 

Like I said, it should be illegal for me to work on my own stuff...

How do you teach children the most important things in life using the wisdom of the ages? Well, here's one initiative....take a list of 16 important ideas like Humility, Patience, Kindness, Delight from the 7th century, make a short rhyme for each of the ideas, turn it into a handclap game, translate it (from Tibetan to English to Spanish), teach it, have an Italian videographer tape it, pass it on....

 

Here are the words they are saying, in English and in Spanish...

 

It's In My Hands

 

(verse one covers Humility, Patience, Contentment, Delight -- How we Think):

I THINK that...

Each of you gives me a lesson.

I'm like water, patient, still,

searching for the path downhill.

I have what I need, if I don't feed my greed.

No need to wait let's celebrate

My joy times two, when I'm happy for YOU!

 

(verse two covers Kindness, Honesty, Generosity, Thoughtful Speech -- How we Act):

Take ACTion...

Care for others. Keep trying.

Honesty works best for me.

I can share my stuff. I have enough.

When I'm wise I think more, speak less.

 

(verse three covers Respect, Forgiveness, Gratitude, Responsibility -- How we relate to others):

Re LATE it!

Let's honor each who guide, or teach.

I forgive then I feel better.

Thanks to those who wiped my nose.

Through thick or thin, count me in.

 

(verse four covers Principles, Aspiration, Service, and Courage -- How we find meaning in life):

Find MEANing....

I know my way. I walk my path.

I strive to be a better me.

Giving time from my day can help in some way.

Let's think big, be brave, now begin!

(end): It's in.. my .. Hands!

 

Está en mis manos

 

(primera estrofa) PiENso que...

Cada cual me enseña algo.

Agua paciente eso soy,

mi camino busco yo.

Si no quiero más, muy feliz soy ya.

Por qué esperar, vamos a celebrar.

Si me alegro por ti soy dos veces feliz.

 

(segunda estrofa) AcTÚo...

Cuida a los otros, sé constante.

Va bien probar la honestidad.

Puedo compartir, tengo mucho ya.

Menos hablar sin antes pensar.

 

(tercera estrofa) RelaCIÓnate

Respeto mucho a quien me enseña.

Perdonar me hace sentir bien.

Gracias doy a quien me cuidó.

Conmigo ya puedes contar.

 

(cuarta estrofa) SenTIdo...

Conozco ya mi camino y allá voy.

Intento ser un yo mejor.

Ayudo a los demás con tiempo y

mucho más.

Vamos ya, valientes ¡a empezar!

(final) ¡Está en mis manos!

In September 2013, I was given the opportunity to shoot for a non-profit organisation called e.motion21. This is an organisation that provide an Australia-first, innovative dance and fitness program designed specifically for children and young adults with Down Syndrome.

 

This is a series of their rehearsal leading up to a dance event called Musicool. It was an eye opening experience having to shoot this event as I had never shot a subject matter relating to Down Syndrome prior to this. The most essential thing that I realised was that these kids and young adults are no different from what society deems as 'normal'. Everyone experiences struggles and it is the passion that keeps us going. For them, the unity through dance is the core of their passion and joy.

As a Dominican monk, Fra Angelico was not subject to the strict rules of the Florentine painters’ guild. He was thus free to develop a more personal style. This combined strong realism and solid forms with a certain sweetness partly derived from earlier Sienese and Florentine examples.

Black-eyed peas and ham hocks, rice and corn bread = a traditional New Year's Day meal that legendarily insures a prosperous year for southerners in the USA.

 

I have never been able to find a definitive origin or basis for this time honored tradition, but I suspect it is centered around a show of humility, shunning ostentatious displays, by dining on plain country fare.

 

I am sure other regions and countries share similar traditions.

 

I welcome input on the origins of this tradition and stories of similar traditions from other regions or cultures.

 

Happy New Year for all my flickr friends and hopes for a healthy and prosperous 2009.

A lot of people ask me if i payed the persons in the photos. I didn't. This lady was greeting and thanking me to receive my attention. Big lesson of humility.

The early 15c south door with "humility" entrance, is believed to probably be the finest carved door in the county and one of the best in the whole of England. It has Tudor roses, crockets and rich canopies. The Knowles shield is set between the emblems of St Luke and St John . Down the sides are carved the 4 doctors of the church, Gregory, Jerome, Ambrose & Augustine. Round the arch are other saints possibly Saints Michael, George & BVM . There is a lion at the bottom facing a stag on the east side. - Church of St Lawrence, Harpley Norfolk

 

"Humble enough to know I'm not better than anyone and wise enough to know that I am different than the rest!" A great quote about humility adpated by BrianMc. Can be found on MW2F.blogspot.com

MANNING NATIONAL GUARD ARMORY, Albany, Georgia, April 28, 2014 – With the humility of its namesake, the Manning National Guard Armory dedication ceremony was unpretentious and earnest Monday afternoon. The crowd of family, friends and former Warriors-in-Arms paid homage to the Georgia National Guard’s first senior enlisted advisor and State Command Sgt. Major William ‘Billy’ Manning with the renaming of the home to Company ‘F’, 148th Brigade Support Battalion, Georgia Army National Guard. Manning’s ‘Make it Happen’ leadership style made a dramatic impact on all he encountered including the State of Georgia National Guard’s seventh Command Sgt. Major and first African-American to be accepted into the position, James Nelson. Now an active U. S. Army National Guard advocate Nelson credits Manning with getting his career underway.In an interview in 2011 Nelson reflected on his career and the man who made a difference by turning is career around.“It was early in my career and I was an E-5 (Sgt.) contemplating leaving the Georgia Guard after a reorganization,” Nelson recalled. “After speaking with him he said, ‘give it a minute,’ was able to transfer me into a different (job specialty) and it was my first introduction to making it happen by taking care of Soldiers.”Manning would later pin the rank of Staff Sgt., E-6, on Nelson and becoming a mentor to the fledgling noncommissioned officer.It was the State of Georgia’s eighth senior enlisted advisor, Command Sgt. Major Phillip Stringfield who initiated the designation change to honor the legend who was famous for his heavy-handed training tactics to punctuate the need for situational awareness when you are in the business of combat arms.“His style could put you off initially,” Stringfield said. “Sgt. Major Manning was a direct, no-nonsense leader whom I’ve attempted to mirror in my style of leading our Soldiers.” (Georgia Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Tracy J. Smith)
