How do you measure aliveness?

After agreeing the basics what would you say?  And how will you become more alive?  Because we know this is not it.  In this we are pilgrims.

Whilst this may sound like an individual thing, it’s more about engaging with others – as subject or companion.  Pilgrims help each other towards personal aliveness.  This is to be Human.

There are paths we can share with others.

There are paths we must face alone.

And oftentimes, there is no path at all.

Some are thrust into pilgrimage, others decide to embark upon it; whichever way it is for us, we look for opportunities to bring aliveness to others.

This is not the same as having.  It is about being, about an infinite game in which we seek to live our lives towards including more in the game and keeping this game going for as long as possible.

This is what occurs to me on this second day of pilgrimage.
