Welcome to MwT: The PauseCast with Angie Arendt! We’re continuing to dig into and explore the ingredients of joy. We’ll follow the model of the Lebanese-American poet Khalil Gibran in his famed poem “The Prophet” and explore more on the topic… On Change… On Worry… On Relationship… On Getting older…. And how these contribute to our experience of joy.
Today’s PauseCast continues our dive into the bigger topic of Change. Last session we looked at abundance and scarcity, and we often see these two as opposites. But… the opposite of abundance isn’t scarcity, it’s actually Enough. At least we think so.
This is a real wrestle folks… as we meandered around, we realized just how difficult a topic this is to get our arms around. How do we approach the concept of enough? How much enough is actually enough? And yes, Angie brought the movie “Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory” into the mix… a movie she loves but I’ve never seen. Too. Much. Fun.
As this podcast is about joy in the every day, Angie links us back to community and sacred moments when we share what we have as individuals with one another, creating a sense of enough. Community and sharing creates a sense of “enough,” at least for Angie. What’s your view? Let us know what you think!
Please, share our work widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars. If you have comments or questions, please send them to meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com.
