### When bliss connections & experiences nourish your soul, please consider making a donation at givetobliss.com. Thank-you for your continued friendship & support.

### This sharing is being offered again by popular demand. In 2019, Ted invited bliss Participants who had a wide variety of points of view on various topics of the day to speak and be heard in a thoughtful, respectful way. The Quaker Minute encourages everyone attending the class to respectively LISTEN to what each speaker has to say. Then, for one minute, THINK about the idea being presented in quiet contemplation and discernment before responding. Together, we are practicing how to be heard and voice our personal feelings about a hot topic in a non-hostile manner. Old fashioned discourse and debate are at the center of this exercise of our cherished 1st Amendment. Please join Ted to participate, either as a silent listener and thinker, or as someone who wants to voice a view. The participants will select the topics to be to be addressed with a vote.
