SEARCH FOR MEANING IN LIFE
Elaine Kresse will offer a class entitled "Search for Meaning in Life"   at 7 pm on Tuesdays May 6, 13. 20, 27, June 3, June 10 in the Board Room.
Two books are recommended , but reading them is not essential for class: Staying Sane in a Crazy World by Rabbi Sherwin T. Wine, founder of the Center for New Thinking; and A Tale of Boxes: The Role of Myth in Creating and Changing our Stories by Rev. Robert T. Latham.
Wine explores how to cope successfully with an unfair/meaningless universe by giving us examples (stories). We'll look at his ten steps to sanity using reason in stories. This will be complemented with Latham's approach about taking charge of myths that shaped and continued to shape us. "Freedom is the privilege of choosing my own box," writes Latham.  There will be some journaling and
"self-inflicted" homework as we reflect on related topics from two perspectives and come to our individual conclusions.
