"I've been reflecting on this subject a lot lately. I started a new unprogrammed meeting a couple of years ago. There was one other Friend from the beginning, but she made it clear that her time for involvement would be slim, and it has been.…"

"Relevance (I can see I wasn't very explicit in my last comment): A diffusion of authority into a group is one ideal of organization. Which prevents one person's idiosyncrasies from dominating a project. But when you take the vision of…"

"A former Pendle Hill teacher pointed out to me that Pendle Hill is not under the care of any Quaker Meeting. There's a daily meeting for worship, but none of the Quaker organizational structure. She felt this was a defect. I saw it as the only…"

What about us 2nd/3rds? Us forty or fifty somethings?

Is there a place for us in the religious society of friends for late converts? Those who are too old for young adult friends but too young for aging concerns? Those of us 45 to 60 . . . do we also have something to contribute to the spiritual health of our community? Albiet, late commers, nay late bloomers, that we are? What is our role in our society?See More

"Sounds like that person is in an unhappy relationship.  For some people, the best thing that happens is that they end up with a larger or better or happier family."
