Jack’s Winning Words 7/9/19
“It is curious that physical courage should be so common
in the world and moral courage so rare.” (Mark Twain) Which of Dorothy’s friends do you
identify with? Scarecrow, Tin Man or the Lion? To be smarter, to be
more caring? That’s me! How about you? …and, most of us
could stand to be more courageous when it comes to speaking up in the face of
moral wrongs. We need God (the Wizard) to help us become braver
advocates for right over wrong. ;-)
Jack
FROM OUTHOUSE JUDY: Definitely the Tin Man. We could all use more intelligence and of course compassion. In the world today morals are becoming extinct. We could all us more God and less us.===JACK: The Wizard of Oz is a "God-story" if you read between the lines.
FROM EDUCATOR PAUL: Maybe this would be a good time for “The Day the Earth Stood Still” to become reality! Except this time he won’t get shot and he’ll help humanity be better physically and humanistically
FROM DR JUDY: Good morning Jack. I always enjoy reading your winning words. Have you ever read Jean Houston’s The Wizard of Us: transformational lessons from oz. It’s a terrific metaphor of life and transformation. ===JACK: The Wizard of Us? It sounds interesting. I like learning lessons from situations.
FROM NANCY RUTH: I think I was trying to be courageous in the gay parade. What do you think?===JACK: Courageous people stand up for what they believe. Good for you! IN Sunday School we always had to "stand up" when we sang, Stand up, Stand Up for Jesus.
