what helps me is not to look into the future
but to work on today
today's problems are never too large or too difficult
and God will get us there
i've imagined terrible outcomes before
and they never came to pass
My son told me yesterday
that he was feeling worse each day
'it must be something bad'
it's only a cold
it keeps getting worse
until
it starts getting better
"Mercy and goodness shall follow you all the days of your life"
a promise to each of us everywhere
a message written on every leaf and dale
in river and stream
bird songs, cell membranes and neutrinos
conceived in liberty
single celled ameobas to multicelled organisms
individuals to social networks
simple to complex, individual to network and again
the web of life
could a cell have ever imagined that one day
together would think and speak in a single voice
and it was good
the tree of kowledge of good and evil....
there's an interesting thing
nothing is more terrible
than endless days of having nothing to do
the Budha forgets himself
and just does
Piers Plowman:
"Thou shalt not hate thy brothers secretly in thy heart, but rebuke them publicly." (Lev 19:17)
"They'll produce a passage too," said I, " a proof from the Gospel: 'Do not judge anyone' (Mt 7:1)
"And what purpose does Law possess," said Lewte(Justice), "if no one reproves them - Falseness and fraudulence?"
to do the right as God gives me to see the right
to do the best i can as best i can
LIFE
cell-to-cell communication imperative
