A journal of life pursued

There was an article in the New York Times Magazine yesterday on independent film maker Jim Jarmusche‘s new film, Broken Flowers. “[The movie] seems less concerned with results than with the in-between moments of life: the journey rather than the destination.” Yes. Yes! The in-between moments moments of life! It is all between something or other, but we don’t know it, waiting for that something or that other. It is all the in-between, in between birth and death.

With an undergraduate degree in Religion and Philosophy, complimented with graduate work in the History of Ideas, Doug has spent his life chasing some of life’s big questions. As a result he has delved deeply into wisdom traditions both ancient and modern, including the philosophical schools of Existentialism, Pragmatism, and Stoicism; he has also explored several of the Eastern traditions, principally Zen Buddhism and Taoism. Admittedly, he is no expert on anything, being a simple pilgrim.

I welcome your comments. Thanks for reading.
