Dry

Remarkably, the weather was dry for the duration of our walk today – though not on either side of it.

Sunday’s Lectionary includes the bit about the people going strange quickly when Moses fails to come back down the mountain. People aren’t stupid: they watch their leaders. They know what’s going on. If the leaders don’t pay attention, community starts to collapse. If leaders set an example, people follow that example, good or bad. It’s not just what you say, it’s what you do. Above all, there needs to be a sense of leaders themselves being led (preferably for me, by God – but by principles at least). Anyway, what do I know? I was never very successful in any of the leadership roles I had.
