Maybe it is time to take a stand in the least likely of places. In this country we promote groups, herds in some cases, but every now and then, a stand is needed in a “stand up” way. Maybe, the call comes from inside not from “out there”-the call to intent.
The very idea, the call for a brief stay in a harsh land. Oh my, what if a difference is not made in this brief time? Who are we to judge? Break up the landscape, pull out into boredom where your daily coordinates are to be found, learn you aren’t unique, there have been those before, and there are those are on the way. To exist is hard to preach, but is at the core of the Life Process-change will be evidenced. The outcome of process can’t be pre-determined, but here is the incubator of hope, a necessary and innate ingregient in the mix.
There is no ordinary in the everyday, but there is radical evidence for “something” going on here that request our Presence. If I can be where I am, with who I am, I can recognize my gift of moments-one at a time.
Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
