February:
Lust's Double-Edged Sword — How do erotic attractions heal &
harm us? 2/7/10 (1st Sundays), 2:30-4:30 pm
Each month a small group (8-15) of men gathers for an honest, open,
powerful, and often funny discussion. We sit in the comfort of a living
room and talk & listen about a subject we find interesting & important, such
as sex, relationships, work, aging, or health. We explore collaboratively,
learning from each other about ourselves and our fellows.
We rediscover the power of thoughtful collective inquiry. We remember that
human beings are usually wiser when they learn & laugh together. And of
course we stop for tasty snacks and tea — because the brain and the heart
both need sustenance. As the weather improves, we may sometimes walk & talk
as Socrates & his students did -because this encourages us to learn & listen
with all our senses, and lets us stretch our legs.
