11. To Wonder at Beauty

copied into CPB Sept 28, 2023

To wonder at beauty

To wonder at beauty,

Stand guard over truth,

Look up to the noble,

Resolve on the good.

This leads us truly

To purpose in living,

To right in our doing,

To peace in our feeling,

To light in our thinking.

And teaches us trust,

In the working of Spirit,

In all that there is,

In the width of the world,

In the depth of the soul.

~ by Rudolph Steiner c.1920

12. The Heart of the Matter

A. Quote entered into CPB during class

"My image is a beautiful flower. The stem of the flower is, in fact STEM. Science, technology, engineering and math. But the blossom of the flower is the humanities. Without the blossom the stem is completely useless. It’s just a stem. How essential it is that these two areas work in coordination with each other.” John Lithgow, Actor

The humanities remind us where we have been and help us envision where we are going. Emphasizing critical perspective and imaginative response, the humanities— including the study of languages, literature, history, film, civics, philosophy, religion, and the arts—foster creativity, appreciation of our commonalities and our differences, and knowledge of all kinds. The social sciences reveal patterns in our lives, over time and in the present moment. Employing the observational and experimental methods of the natural sciences, the social sciences—including anthropology, economics, political science and government, sociology, and psychology—examine and predict behavioral and organizational processes. Together, they help us understand what it means to be human and connect us with our global community." —From the introduction to "The Heart of the Matter" (2013), a publication of the American Academy's Commission on the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Lyrics

Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrongMy own beliefs are in my songThe butcher, the banker, the drummer and thenMakes no difference what group I'm in

I am everyday people, yeah, yeah

There is a blue one who can't acceptThe green one for living withA fat one tryin' to be a skinny oneDifferent strokes for different folksAnd so on and so on and scooby-dooby-doobyWe got to live together

I am no better and neither are youWe're all the same, whatever we doYou love me, you hate meYou know me and thenYou can't figure out the bag I'm in

I am everyday people

There is a long hairThat doesn't like the short hairFor being such a rich oneThat will not help the poor oneDifferent strokes for different folksAnd so on and so on, scooby-dooby-doobyWe got to live together

There is a yellow one that won'tAccept the black oneThat won't accept the red oneThat won't accept the white oneDifferent strokes for different folksAnd so on and so on andScooby-dooby-dooby

I am everyday people
