Book Description
THE POSSIBLE JOURNEY is about war and peace, about disharmony and harmony, about hate and love, about what we choose and by which we customize habits. In the course of life, positives and negatives get folded together in consciousness. We can blindly go on and suffer the hurts of negative implications and impose them on others, or we can search them out and remove them from the menu of choices. Nature equips us to do this. We inherit an intuitional capacity for symbiotic accommodation but also a strong inclination toward hyped egoism. One is the way of love and harmony, the other is the way of discord and degradation. It’s not about God; it’s about us and our personal choices to become Godlike—or otherwise. Natural, self-reflective evolution (symbiosis), the option of love, is ours to choose. Intentional symbiosis is the way of Godhead Harmony, the Way of WORD-LIGHT-LOVE. The alternative is the way of waste, of personal and social degradation, the trinity of ignorance-arrogance-greed. Coming to the wisdom of faith/reason by way of trimorphic resonance is an adult, divine/human process of consciousness, something larger and beyond the pablum of institutional religion. Our choice is to continue on the way of repressive Dominion Theology, imperialism and violence, or to diverge and opt the way of Liberation Theology, love for one another, openness and intentional accommodation. THE POSSIBLE JOURNEY aspires to be a lifetime guide for growth into adult faith and fulfilled living. Let it be your guide to the harmonic Way of TRUTH-LIGHT-LOVE. Uncompromised Trust, fidelity to mutuality, is the best option for developing the possibilities of life. For the Love of God and for Peace on Earth choose intentional symbiosis, choose trust, choose life!

Book Description
"In the electric, pulsating world around us, the essay lives a life of abandon, posing questions, speaking truths, fulfilling a need humans have to know what other humans think and wonder so we can feel less alone." -Katherine Bomer Sadly, many students only know "essay" as a 5-paragraph, tightly structured writing assignment that must check all the boxes of a standardized formula. How did essays in school get so far away from essays in the world? Katherine makes a powerful case for teaching the essay as a way to restore writing to think-that it is in fact necessary for students' success in college and career. "Essay helps students write flexibly, fluently, and with emboldened voices," she writes in The Journey Is Everything, "qualities they can translate into any assigned writing task in school or in life." She argues that the close reading of essays fulfills the recommendations of state and national standards, while practice in essay writing leads to better academic and test writing. More importantly, "Essay gives its author the space, time, and freedom to think about and make sense of things, take a journey of discovery, and speak her mind, without boundaries." Don't students deserve the chance to develop their own topics, discover their own writing voices, and learn to structure prose organically, according to the content? Katherine gives you tools, strategies, and activities to bring a unit on more authentic writing into your practice. Rediscover the power of the essay to bring out students' true thinking-their true selves. Because after all, the journey is everything.
