Life today poses many questions, both in our personal lives and in
our participation in nature and the broader culture. We often focus
on the outer needs for social, political, technological, or
environmental change. However, can we really meet the challenges
around us without also attending to our inner life and to our own
evolving biography as it reflects and informs the outer world? This
book starts from the premise that each of our lives expresses
uniqueness of spiritual intention within the unfolding of universal
rhythms and possibilities. Can we wake up to the developmental
opportunities offered to us through different life phases? Are we
able to step out of the narrowness of the dualistic nature-nurture
argument and experience that we are both more than our genetic
composition and more than a product of the social and educational
influences that have shaped us? Can we come to appreciate the
learning that our "I" has received through heredity, ethnicity,
schooling, and gender without losing a sense of our true
individuality? Waking up to our unique self as it grows through
interaction with the world and other human beings helps us
recognize the significance we all play in one another's biographies
and in the unfolding of our larger human story. Why on Earth?
invites us to explore our own meaning-filled life journey, to bring
conscious attention to how we go our path, so that we may more
freely perceive our possibilities and our responsibilities along
the way of our personal and shared becoming.
