Now that I've retired from my post as Senior MInister of the First Unitarian Church of Portland, OR, I am experiementing with new ways to create and to communicate. One of those channels that has been WAY FUN is doing what I'm calling Mini-Reflections, on Twitter.
If you follow my blog, you know that I do longer pieces that I call "Reflections" at least once a week. These are short reflective essays, with a spiritual bent, generally on issues of the day, The Mini-Reflections on Twitter can utilize only 140 characters, of course, and I find it challenging to try to say something meaningful in just those few words. I do these Mini-Reflections once a day, generally in the morning.
Some of the recent Mini-Reflections I have posted on Twitter are the following:
"There is no such thing as the truth about the past: there is only what you select from the past and how you make meaning from it."
"The flesh will not hold. But in its very failing, it teaches us to look beyond itself for meaning."
"What would it mean to live without expectations--to live patiently, gladly, in the wilderness of your own life?"
These Mini-Reflections have proved popular with my readers on Twitter and Facebook, and so I'm suggesting to you readers of my "Reflections" blog that you might want to receive them, too. If so, go to www.twitter.com/MarilynSewell or www.facebook.com/MarilynSewell and sign up to receive them daily.
Thanks for your interest in my work--I hope you will continue to enjoy it!
Marilyn
