How does one choose a new group

By William S. Becker -

How does one choose a new group
it feels like looking into alphabet soup
i know it don’t mean to find new friends
so how does one truly begin

not by faces, not by names
not by comfort, warmth, or claims
not by who makes room for me
but who bows to unity

i step in quiet, without demand
no flag raised in my hand
i don’t ask who welcomes me
i ask where pride won’t let me be

i listen more than i explain
let confusion work its grain
where resistance starts to rise
truth is closer than my eyes

no promises carved in stone
just showing up, unknown
if i can serve the aim, not self
that’s the first brick on the shelf

and if the road feels thin and bare
that’s how i know the work is there

The 3 H's: A Guide to Winning Man's War with Nature

By William S. Becker -
The 3 H's: A Guide to Winning Man's War with Nature By William Becker          Man’s programming is the Will To Receive , a need for self-gratification. All this means is that we are ruled by a constant desire for pleasure. It is instilled in us from the time we are born into this body, which is one of many that the soul uses. Like changing shirts, man's soul changes bodies. When the body dies, the soul returns back to the source. Man is born to return to the source before the body dies. This isn’t too clear in daily life. Partly because life in today's society is not easy. We work longer hours for less money. We have less time to enjoy what we accumulate, and a big part of the problem is that everyone accumulates mostly only for themselves. Americans are great packrats, not all but most, and even those that don't packrat, actually do. We consume until it all but consumes us. Man in general is so obsessed with acquisition in one form ...
