Introducing the process philosophy of A N Whitehead
To be in development is to engage with a world in which every moment is meaningful
every moment is unique and every moment is connected
every moment has a unique role in the complex, interconnected flow of the universe
Our lives are inherently meaningful
~
meaning is essential to our humanity
meaning feeds, motivates and inspires us
the more meaning we experience, the more alive we feel
in development we support each other to live meaningful lives
the first step to a meaningful life is to value who you are
you are the only you there has ever been, or will ever be
and you are here, right now
participating in the unfolding of the universe
there is no meaning without experience
the tree that falls in the forest is only meaningful if it is experienced
we make meaning by paying attention to the moments we experience
meaning comes from moments of creativity, collaboration and connection
meaning is creative, it is always in development
meaning requires movement
‘that which ceases moving, ceases living’
the things that matter most to us are not certain
it is what we don’t know that fascinates us
making meaning is a collaborative activity
we matter to each other
when a moment is shared its meaning is multiplied
every moment has meaning for ourselves, other people and the wider world
to be in development is to value these connections
meaning requires connection
we are never alone
development anywhere is development everywhere
in development every moment contributes to our long-term development
as individuals, groups and communities
in development every moment matters
we are all in development
let’s share our moments
Introducing the process philosophy of A N Whitehead
The turning of the year reminds us that each moment – each step on the journey of life – is both an ending and a beginning and we cannot begin anything without letting go.
To be in development is to engage in a world in which every moment matters
Remember a walk in development In the Autumn stillness a blackbird’s whistle echoes childhood voices and the crunch of broken glass while the steam from
When we walk in development the moments we experience inform our long-term development
How can we foster interaction?
All life has its own pace
Let’s take our time
