I went to bed when Trump was trending.
I didn’t have the courage to face the truth of the unfolding.
It wasn’t much of a sleep really,
But whenever I felt overwhelmed
I found an anchor in words from the Gospel of Thomas
“Come into being as you pass away.” (Logion 42)
As we surrender, let go, truly see, a way is opened
A new arising emerges.
And while racism, sexism, all the frightening ‘isms
so seem to prevail in this dawning day
I choose to believe it is a tear, a ripping of a veil, a potential opening
An oddly tinted mirror for us to truly see
And choose new ways
For Love arising
Because of this.

Fantastic Janice. My oh my, am I so appreciating facebook even though it is utterly evil – being so easily in touch with friends around the world at the moment is a real gift.
Hi Helen. A hard day. But we hold each other and if we can, hold hope with those who cannot.
Thank you
I also choose Love .It will lead me through…. it will lead us all .
