This season of Advent is turning out to be another kind of preparation for me, personally. Far from working towards the coming of Christ, I'm working out the coming out of the Brothers' Congress, due to commence at the end of this month. Though just a fortnight away, I'm still planning and finalising the modality of the same.
My greatest difficulty is how to get people involved rather than me or some ONE doing it all, doing it for everybody else. Furthermore the fact that not everyone on the organising team has still grasped this expected shift in the strategy of the Congress, is adding to my woes. People still call me to confirm something which is mere repetition of the previous year(s). Most still don't get the point that the attempt is not merely to repeat the past but to re-script the future. Now that's easier said than done! What's more, I myself am still "re-scripting"!
