I was recently messaged by a well respected spiritual advisor with whom I’d lost touch for many years following his move from the southwestern desert to the southeastern coast where very close friends of ours fully recognize their good fortune to be amongst his congregants.
I understand his caution about voicing political views publicly, most especially at a time when frustrations are raw.
Each time my frustration with irrationality spikes, igniting my ire to write of impeachment on Facebook, that’s actually wishful thinking voicing my impatience for change, aloud. Though we had need to know how many millions remain deeply rooted in the ignorance of prejudice, I believe that every day trump’s leave taking is delayed sees our nation slip further into the black hole that our next administration will need to fill with pro active legislation so as to resolve the massive conundrums, which continue to undermine the value system upon which thirteen independent colonies were originally united. I believe our nation had to hit bottom as a whole in order awaken our need to become fully aware of every aspect of life that’s in dire need of repair so that, with clarity, our values and priorities will actually match.
The last time my spiritual advisor and I were together was in my bedroom, the day before I was admitted to Barrows for brain surgery, which, thank God, proved more than successful. Now we meet, again, before I fly to Houston for a serious heart/lung surgery, once chemo is completed, sometime this summer. I believe our coming together at two highly vulnerable times in my life is bashert. Meant to be. And I pray that my dear friend and his precious family stay home, stay well, stay aware of each one’s need of personal growth and laughter. Lots of laughter!
