Description: Quaker Quicks - The Promise of Right Relationship by Pamela Haines Explore right relationship by showing up with ourselves, our communities, our values and our actions in a way that rings true. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description These reflections address the challenge of reaching for right relationship in all aspects of our lives. They invite us to consider how we show up - with ourselves, our communities and the world around us - in the light of Quaker values and practice. Does this choice of a way of being nourish community, for myself and others? Is a commitment to equality embedded in my position and clear in my intent? Does it have the essence of simplicity, cutting through the layers of complexity and clutter in modern life, and resting in that which is good and true? Is it life-affirming, tending to minimize violence and enhance the possibility of peaceful cooperation? Is it rooted in an understanding of my place in the larger community of life in all its forms, and my role in sustaining that web? Is it honorable: Does it have the ring of truth? An intention to keep reaching for right relationship holds the promise of finding solid ground in these tumultuous times and discerning paths that light a way ahead. Author Biography A student of economics since childhood, Pamela Haines has spent a lifetime gathering experience, knowledge and perspective to speak with authority on how economic theories and structures shape our lives and challenge our values. She has written pamphlets and magazine articles and lead workshops based on demystifying connections between economics and daily life, while challenging people to claim their power and act on their values. Pamela lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Review I dont know anyone who wouldnt find this remarkable book helpful: deepening their awareness of how they live their lives, increasing their confidence, sense of power and choice, and love for themselves and others. Pamela Haines voice is calm and reassuring, with a gentle humor. I noticed more light in the room where I was reading.--George Lakey, educator, author of Dancing with History: A Life for Peace and JusticeWithin the Judeo-Christian-Humanist tradition, Quakerism has uniquely centered the ethics of right relationship. Combined with the ethics of reverence for life, it lifts the veil on a flowering landscape of readaptation in which a social economy of adequate access to the means of life under the governance of "no more than needed" provides a bountiful and satisfying way of life. I am delighted to see Pamela Haines take up this theme in such a fresh and wide-ranging collection of essays. I commend them to the attention of all.--Keith Helmuth, author of Tracking Down Ecological Guidance Details ISBN1803414243 Author Pamela Haines Pages 96 Year 2024 ISBN-10 1803414243 ISBN-13 9781803414249 Publication Date 2024-01-26 UK Release Date 2024-01-26 Format Paperback Imprint John Hunt Publishing Place of Publication New Alresford Country of Publication United Kingdom AU Release Date 2024-01-26 NZ Release Date 2024-01-26 Audience General Publisher Collective Ink DEWEY 248.4896 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
