Before You Kiss That Frog…. [humor] 3 For Sr. Patricia Maria Magdalena, who showed up first, has stayed the longest, has likely worked the hardest…and loved beyond measure. And for Our fellow Companions—throughout the world—who have traveled this journey with us in wondrous, supportive ways; Our Resident-Companions and Community-Companions—all of those who have come and gone, to continue their journey in a different way…or come and stayed, to gift us with their solidarity—yet all who have mutually taught and learned with us so many of the lessons we need to reanimate each day; Our Servant-Leaders— Sr. Jane Frances de Chantal, Br. Gregory Francis de Sales, Fr. River Damien, Br. Michael Simon, Br. Tobias Joseph, Sr. Andrea Margaret, Sr. Cindy Angela de Foligno, Sr. Carla Therese Lisieux, Sr. Mary Joseph, Sr. Elise Marguerite, Br. Charles Sezze…as well as those “fellow-travelers” who have, over these years, given their hearts: Laurie, Barb & Charlie, Leo, Carol, Robert, Paul, Margaret, and Sandy; “Mother Mary” for her investment of heart and soul in the initial—and continuing—crazy dream… 4 PREFACE Although this personal narrative is a continuation of the journey as described in Go Back, You Didn’t Say May I, it is, in fact, an entity unto itself. It portrays a certain place, a certain people, during a certain time, under certain circumstances. Yet the “certainty” of it all is likely mitigated by my own perceptions, for this is my version of the reality of that place, that people, that time, those circumstances. There were—and are—literally hundreds, perhaps thousands, of other eyes and ears and voices attuned to these experiences, and I hope that I’ve honored those; that is my intent. While I describe these moments and these characters from real life in a real place, I am quite sure that our struggles and joys in our bittersweet world are reasonably “universal”—that the reader will recognize his or her own pilgrimage through time and soul, through the kaleidoscopic, roller-coaster experiences of living on the face of the earth. Yes, I believe that we are called to share our stories with one another in this often- ambiguous universe, for our stories may allow us—as we say—to make some sense out of the nonsense. Knowing, too, that ours is simply one of many communities across this land which are risking and learning in a solidarity of intentional community work and/or ministry—as well as those which seek greater understanding of the unique teachings of the Nazarene—I have included an after-section entitled “Resources,” which may be of help in surveying the perspective of others, through websites, books, and periodicals. We have learned much from many over these decades of dialogue. Finally, let me thank you for treading this pilgrimage with us in these pages, as you accompany us just as we are—as you are—“warts and all.” We hope to encourage you in continuing your own quest in any way we can—perhaps through our website, perhaps in a copy of our poster, perhaps in a mutual and common commitment to foster inclusive community wherever we are. Namaste, Fr. Tom Jackson Abbot Order of Christian Workers www.OrderOfChristianWorkers.org 5 TRUST [from German trost, consolation] I sit with Father Dave on the front porch of Andre House in Phoenix. It’s an early-December noontime, and we sit side-by-side in the pleasant climate, both staring straight into the street of this poor, urban neighborhood, each with personal thoughts of the day’s obligations, yet both aware of my pending departure. [As I stare, I think of Thomas Merton’s prayer: “My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so…Therefore, I will trust you…though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.] It’s been many months of working together amid the organized chaos of this place: the daily feeding of hundreds and hundreds of homeless folks, the construction work on the new (former warehouse) building, the staff meetings, the sharing groups, the backyard Eucharists. And now a time of struggling—somehow—with needed, bittersweet farewells. I showed up in May from Birmingham, from years as a shrink/priest, to try to discover again my interrupted journey to the streets, to identify with an intentional community of strangers, to be a non-Catholic in a Catholic, Holy Cross community…to wander among priests and monks and full-time volunteers and part-time volunteers and the desperately poor folks of this abundant desert land…to not pretend that I am anything other than a fellow pilgrim, somewhat lost in my own journey, but perhaps newly-found in a place of real vocation. I showed up, too, not only unannounced, but somewhat in disguise: no indication of religious or professional “credentials” or many words of background or spiritual expectations; rather, I simply presented myself as a carpenter who had heard that they needed some help in renovating a huge building into a headquarters for their work and ministry. The original folks I met seemed awfully glad to hear that I was a carpenter, and few other questions were asked of me. I was to discover that their enthusiasm for my presence was due to an almost complete absence of other carpenters. Oh my, I hadn’t expected that! I showed up to work…and work I did, mainly alone, in those stifling hot days of the urban Phoenix summer. As days turned into weeks, my aloneness—my “secret” of my past and my intent—evaporated into the welcoming of community, as kind questions became answers, as carpentry joined with shared tasks beyond my supposed lack of expectation, as strangers became coworkers, as “non-Catholic” became seemingly mundane in a world of common cause. My history—in clinical work, in community-building, in group training, in recovery-work, in previous street-work—became more and more confessed in intimate discussions, and suddenly I was asked to help try to forge a more evident process of group awareness…in other words, to establish times and environments in which folks could pursue the intentional act of sharing their lives by simply “sitting” together in mutual dialogue. And so, that happened. Co-workers began to discover their common journey, their differences, their fears and hopes, their self-imposed shame of imperfection, their daily joys, frustrations, and dreams. And even as “convener” in most 6 of these sittings, I was gifted with the realization that I, too, was no longer a stranger to them or myself, but a fellow, intimate pilgrim. In late November, in the beauty of an innocent question asked in a casual sitting together, one of the group members wondered aloud when it would be that I would celebrate a Mass in the community. And, instantly, I knew that the situation had suddenly changed in ways that I wanted to deny, for I knew that the institutional line between Catholic and non-Catholic had somehow disappeared in our life together, yet—however wonderfully-appropriate that might seem in terms of our life together—it likely meant institutional difficulty for these religious whom I had come to love and need. In that kind, pregnant moment, I knew instantly that it was time for me to consider my next way- station on the journey, wondering where on earth I might go; wondering if I had the courage to set off in a direction that had no pre-established, formed community awaiting me; wondering, in my classic Virgo-like tendencies, exactly what it might look like, feel like, be like. So I sit, in easy and uneasy silence, with Fr. Dave on the front porch. [There had been that quick trip through Tyler, Texas, to visit my mother, my sister Barb, my brother-in-law Charlie; though they seem to love it there as transplanted Yankees from Michigan, I cannot seem to get a comfortable sense of it. There is a feeling of foreignness. Yet I was invited to a party by some of their friends, met a lot of good folks, talked about my experiences in Phoenix, felt relaxed, had a good time. One woman, especially, seemed very interested in what I was presently doing, and later asked if I would consider coming to Tyler to pursue a similar effort; I blithely cast off that possibility as something beyond imagination…and likely appeared elitist and arrogant as I did so. On my drive back to Phoenix, I rehearsed all the reasons why I would not want to live in East Texas, but there was that gnawing beckoning of living with and near beloved family-members after all these years of long-distance relationship, of quick, periodic visits; present, too, was that seductive thought of having folks I knew nearby as I ventured into a risky proposition.

  • Loses at the Core of the Self and the Merits of “Portable Families” 1
    International Journal of Brief Therapy and Family Science 2011, Vol. 1, No.1, 57-67 <Invited Paper> LOSES AT THE CORE OF THE SELF AND THE MERITS OF “PORTABLE FAMILIES” 1 Carlos E. Sluzki1) 1) Department of Global and Community Health, George Mason University ABSTRACT. The treatment of a patient who was referred due to hallucinations reveals a world of “magic realism” that is far from infrequent in elderly people with a small and dwindling social network –especially if coming from cultures where the boundaries between the inner and the outer world world are fuzzy. Respecting these traits allow for the development of treatment approaches that can evolve satisfactorily without disrupting the patient’s inscription in this dual world. KEY WORDS: self boundaries, family, hallucinations, culture Introduction after his death, reeling with the vacuum of Our beloved talking cat, an agile acrobat his loss, I still quasi-hallucinate him: I have and tender social being who would jump the sense every now and again that I see his onto my desk whenever I was there and shadow outside my studio window wanting to managed to create a space to lie down be allowed into the house after one of his –pushing away whatever paper, pen or escapades; or I experience him rushing by stapler was in his way and purr until falling me in or out when I enter the house.

  • Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character
    Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Amber Boardman A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Art and Design Faculty of Art and Design October 2018 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname Boardman Given Name Amber Degree PhD Faculty Art and Design School Art and Design Thesis Title Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Abstract This practice-based project examines ‘cartoonish painting’, an emerging trend of contemporary figurative painting which draws on links between cartoons, humour, narrative, character and bodily transformation. In my practice, cartoonish painting depicts and comments on the endless desire to transform body and self as promoted by Internet culture and social media. This thesis argues that the social media driven desire for self-improvement—bodily alteration and transformations of the self—creates a tragicomic effect that unfolds through the devices of narrative and character. I examine the still influential, Romantic theory of character developed by William James. James articulated well-rounded characters evolve over time through a series of identifications with external others. This thesis proposes that James’s formulations about character retain currency, as people identify with depictions of idealised bodies, high-performing and socially sanctioned selves disseminated through the Internet. This thesis argues, however, that this aspirational selfhood and identifying with idealised others creates feelings of inadequacy. The ideology of a striving, perfected self in search of the ‘American Dream’ will be analysed through Henri Bergson’s theory of the comic. Bergson argued that the failure of machine-like pursuits uncontrolled by consciousness can be manifested through comic depictions of the human body.

They were a great group, he said, no question. The man who had famously and perfectly described Keith Richards as “elegantly wasted” lounged in a plume of smoke. Then he went one step too far. In years to come, he prophesied, the Smiths would be considered the end of the line - the last great British rock group. Just as he spoke, in an abandoned warehouse in Manchester, the Stone Roses were about to take the stage. Very soon, they would render Morrissey’s Manchester a piece of history: the NHS specs, the photo op under the Strangeways road sign, the canalside walks of A Taste of Honey - all would be timelocked in the mid-80s. The Stone Roses turned the contrast up and caused a pop revolution. Kent’s quote was quickly forgotten. For some time, I’ve wanted to write a history of modern pop, the period that began with rock’n'roll. I have had a few dozen conversations over cold drinks about start points, end points, teen culture, formats, haircuts, the importance of slang in lyrics, the involvement of the military-industrial complex.

  • The Presence of the Absent: Therapy with Families and Their Ghosts
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 12:57 13 August 2016 The Presence of the Absent Where live our most cherished (or painful) memories? Where are lodged those whom we loved (or dreaded) after they have departed? They inhabit, at least for a while, in a gray zone located between our self and our world, sometimes as internal reminiscences sometimes as strikingly vivid images detected and inter- acted by individuals and occasionally by whole collectives, as tenuous or as solid presences. This book familiarizes us with six examples of individuals and families in therapy who live and interact with the presence of their absent, pivotal people in their lives who either died or disappeared, but are still there. It familiarizes us with their plight in a tender, compassionate style, describing in detail interviews and therapeutic transformations and, in several cases, follow-ups as well as echoes of those processes. It teaches us to respect those presences as well as how to help families and individuals treasure them, and in many cases to let them go. Written in a vivid, intense language, The Presence of the Absent offers a marvelous insight into these processes that may prove transformative for the therapist (both family and individually oriented), as well as enlightening to the general public.
