Together at the Edge What comes to mind when you hear the word “Edge”? In a general sense an edge is the extreme border or point of anything; the edge of a cliff, the edge of the table; the edge of cloth. An edge is particularly applied to the sharp border, the thin cutting extremity of an instrument, as in the edge of an axe, razor, knife or sword. Figuratively, it can refer to that which cuts or penetrates wounds or injures, the edge of slander. Edges are not always comfortable places

It is 2 years since I finished full-time paid employment.  Many of you have followed alongside me through “Border Crossing” posts, as I took some sabbatical time for rest, renewal, and reorientation.  I saw the months that followed as fallow time while I discerned what my unfolding future may look like, sound like, feel like, taste and smell like.  So many possible options were being entertained.  My “Border Crossing” posts became less regular as I allowed what was gestating to take form.  As the new year commenced, I could see new opportunities unfolding.  But 2020 did not unfolded as expected.   Instead COVID-19, a tiny piece of rna, possibly originating in a hardly known part of the world (at least unknown to most of us in the West) has shaken us from our complacency as it killed 750,000 people around the world and infected about 20 million.   Health and wellbeing has been prioritized over economics and our interconnectedness and interdependence has been highlighted.
