    Sedona News – Recently, students of Deb Sanders’ 5th Grade class at West Sedona
    School suggested an important criterion for the selection of Sedona’s
    Sister City….a dark skies commitment.

    The two fifth grade classes recently completed a STEM Community
    project on Sedona’s light pollution. Their final project, after studying
    about the importance of maintaining Sedona’s Dark Skies designation,
    was to create prototypes of code acceptable outdoor light fixtures. On
    hearing about Sedona’s search for a sister city, the students invited
    Don Groves, Sister Cities Board member, to hear their recommendation
    of a dark skies criterion.

    “ I really enjoyed the 5th grade representatives and their detailed slide
    presentation of why our Sister City should have at least a Dark Skies
    focus if not be an actual certified Dark Skies Community, Groves
    commented. We will discuss this recommendation at the June 7, Sister
    City orientation meeting which will be held at Sedona’s City Hall, Vultee
    meeting room at 4 pm.”

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
