Called Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge

There is a prophet in our midst, and her name is Maggie Harrison. Rousing many like fire, making my skin itch at being possibly excluded from this club that I don't even belong to, really (when asked if I am a Quaker, I always respond, 'Not yet.'), but want to think I can put on and off like so much-- clothing?And, nakedness. Taking off the mantle of Religious Identity, making space for the un-knowingness of living INTO something, removing armor and scaffold and hard won (or not so hard won)…See More

About Me
hi F(f)riends! I am a seeker and lover of Quakerliness. I live and work as Earth Literacy Teacher at Westtown School. I have attended meeting off and on since 1995-- first meeting in Boston at Beacon Hill Friends. I am trying to bring my voice forward more in the blogosphere, as a practice of reflection and an attempt to reach out to others.

I just discovered Westtown School when I was doing a search on Quaker education, quite a place to work! I'm not too proud to say it, I'm a little envious :)

Thanks for joining! I love the "lover of Quakerliness" description--it's deliciously ambiguous. Feel free to jump into the blogs or forum to tell us more what that's about. And welcome again.
