St. Ignatius of Loyola learned to find fruit, that is, the effect or consequence of action. More important than our actions is the action of God in, with and for humans. One grows to find fruit and to offer it the more one savors one's own life and all creation. I hope my posts help you feel that finding fruit is a profitable way of living.

Conversion is “Hard Work”
In the recent issue of the Plough Quarterly digital issue, entitled “Regeneration,” Bill McKibben focused on that aspect of conversion. His subtitle: “With Covid-19, we’re glimpsing the kinds of transformation we need to tackle climate change.” Both disease and climate are interrelated.
What do humans want to happen? For example: “in those cities where the sky is suddenly clear and blue, people might decide that they’d like to keep it that way instead of reverting immediately to the previous haziness.” Will people make that and other things happen? Or “will we pick up where we left off?”
