Some things just go without saying.
But here’s a funny thing about each one of those things:
Whatever goes without saying always becomes, sooner or later, the single most important thing that must be said.
Let’s therefore try an experiment: Let’s each think of something that just goes without saying.
And just say it.
How might that change our world?

We live in interesting times.
mate i have been trying to UNSCRIBE me—–and it don’t work

Ben, I just unsubscribed you. Not sure why it didn’t work, as subscribers come and go all the time. It’s a MailChimp function, outside my control unless I’m handling it manually as in this instance. Thanks for the heads-up!
Yesterday I spoke that which often falls under ‘just goes without saying.’ I was in a session with my team of Baha’i children’s class teachers. I talked about how because we are Baha’is we know we agree on basic and very fundamental beliefs, but we think that that can go without saying. But its obvious we have very different personalities and ways of thinking and we leave ourselves upset when those get in the way of our goals with the classes. I went on to say then that being on the team with them really added to my life and taught me so much about how I need detachment from my human/animal traits.
We then proceeded to have a very harmonious day despite cold temperatures, knocking on some doors and starting conversations with some new contacts in the neighborhood; conversations which will lead to some additional teachers, children, and spaces for classes.
Just wanted to share this experience with saying what goes without saying; in other words, acknowledging what we often take entirely for granted.
