I Am, Moment by Moment
My Dear People,
The moment you say so-and-so is wise or is cruel or defensive or loving or whatever, you have hardened your perception and become prejudiced and ceased to perceive this person moment by moment, somewhat like a pilot who operates today with last week's weather report.
--Anthony de Mello (1931-1987), S.J.
Flying with last week's weather report: sounds pretty dangerous, eh?
And yet, on a daily basis, it's challenging not to do just that.

I am reminded somehow of the answer that God gave at the Burning Bush when Moses asked whom he should say sent him: I am. No name, no designation, no descriptor, would finally do, would do justice to who God was and is.
And so it is with us, made in the image of God: finally no descriptor, no label, no verdict can do justice to who we are, moment by moment:
We are. You are. I am.
Your brother in Christ,
Wallace+
