The last twelve hours were devastating. I couldn't even type a response on the board as the only responses I experienced were puny, primal noises coming from, well, we could just ask the president elect where they were coming from... Didn't really care if the sun came up, actually, but I knew it would. Fortunately, during my morning meditation, (in which I sat longer and took more seriously than usual), I found my center again. Elpolvo is right about one thing (maybe more than one, but whose counting?), we all need to watch what happens. Where I disagree with him is that just watching is enough. At some point, and each of us will know when the time comes, we will all just know how and what we can do for ourselves and others. The universe has seen fit to bless us with the biggest challenge/opportunity the world, as we have perceived it to be, has ever been given. So I am one with my depression today yet look forward to an improved tomorrow. My intention is to be one with whatever reality we are blessed with and give it my all to improve upon it in whatever small way I can. I read an interesting quote this morning from someone I never heard of. It was, "You must be honest emotionally and let your human have it's expression. You gotta have your human and then as quickly as you can, turn on your observer, step back and ask, 'how can I be a healing agent in this story?'... We are being challenged to find neutral, to find our prayers, be wise enough to listen to the pain, feel the struggle but keep our hearts open." Namaste. cos
