Who Am I? Where Am I Going? Who Are We? Where Are We Going? John A. Dick, Ph.D., S.T.D

..."God is not "up there" or "out there." God, "divinity," "the sacred," "the holy" is as close to us as the air in our lungs and the poundings in our hearts. God-with-us is the greatest source of security for time travelers. We need to listen, think, and explore a bit more. We are not alone.

A final reflection about living in sometimes turbulent times, whether in Charlottesville, Barcelona, or the shopping mall across town: Time travelers will have a more contented and a more optimistic journey when they keep their eyes open, their minds receptive and alert, and - like people packing suitcases for a big journey - when they only only carry with them the values and attitudes that sustain and support human life. The rest should be discarded as unneeded and unhealthy baggage.

Safe travels. "
