Updates, Observations and Questions

We’ve heard from many of you that you’d like to know what’s happening now in the communities whose stories we share in Walk Out Walk On. So we’ve asked Walk Outs from each of these communities to share their updates, reflections and questions. We encourage you to offer questions and reflections of your own at the end of each blog entry.

My early retirement from the airline industry

Author: Gerardo Vergara My decision to walk out of a regular employment was sort of an awakening that I did not belong there because I am a free thinker who loves doing and learning about anything that interested me on my own. […]

Present in the Trembling

These last months have been strange—at least if I look through the conventional lens of busyness. Until recently, I measured success according to how productive I was, how much I could accomplish. But now I’m beginning to realize I’ve been addicted to busyness. […]

Life and Death Outside My Bedroom Window

Every morning I wake up and watch life and death outside my bedroom window. We have two beehives perched on the roof of a first floor sunroom. As I watch the hive come alive with the morning sun, most of the bees begin their very full workday, zipping in and out, hovering as they await return entry. But a few of the bees have a different task: Their job is to pull the dead and dying out of the hive and deposit them on the roof, where some lay lifeless and others tremble with their last breaths.

My Story

Author: Veena Vasista (Reprinted from Veena’s blog: See & Connect) My name is Veena Vasista.

Walking Out of the Gallery Scene

Author: Sarah Zoutewelle-Morris Dear people, I would like to tell an inspiring story, but I find myself in the uncomfortable in-between state of having walked out of the old, and not yet having hit solid ground in the new. And perhaps this story needs to be told as well for others who are in a similar position. […]

Living the Gift

Even  After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, “You owe me.”  Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky. – Hafiz Five of us have been in a passionate conversation for over a year now about gift consciousness and how it is manifesting in our world right now. We are Manish Jain from Shikshantar, India; Filiz Telek and Ayşegül Güzel from Zumbara, Turkey; Lina Cramer and Richard Durning from Wisdom Exchange, USA. As a result of this ongoing dialogue, GIFTIVAL was born! We are sensing that it is a crucial time to bring together visionaries and practitioners of the Gift in a peer-to-peer, playful, collective inquiry to share our ideas, experiments, practices and burning questions. We envision activating our collective intelligence & heart by being in this inquiry and celebration together. […]
