Reggie Perrin…..
….tells it like it is.
We’re watching recorded episodes of the original series of ‘The Fall & Rise of Reginald Perrin’.
In episode 5, Reggie’s speech fits today as it fitted the time it was written….
“Making car parks for tourists who are getting away from car parks.”
Good writing is good writing, and good comedy is true to life…..

“Unfurling the Spiral
A Talk by Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee
As an introduction to the theme of our latest print volume, Seasons, we’re sharing a series of talks over the next few weeks given by Emergence executive editor and Sufi teacher Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee at our Song of the Seasons retreat on Whidbey Island. This first talk explores the cyclical nature of the seasons, and how when we devote our attention to these cycles over time, their continuous variation reveals itself, unfurling like a spiral that draws us deeper into kinship with the Earth. If we find the courage to remember ourselves not as impervious to the rhythms of the seasons, but as profoundly connected to them, we can begin to open to their sacred invitation.”
