welcome, well come to day 31 of a season of peace on this first day of the new moonth of merging march and its treasure trove of riches beginning with this day known as fat tuesday, a day to go wild before the metaphorical 40 days in the desert before dying to one life to be reborn into one more in tune with great mystery… welcome, well come to where i live – in the river of life deepening into the river below the river and suspended, paused on the bridge holding the tension of the opposites as this energy moves through melting walls and constrictions that block me from feeling the warm embrace of the web of life, the belonging place for all our relatives, this space where we re-member our true nature as beings of peace who are to live in harmony with all that is… what a moment of eternity we are in with so many opportunities to practice lovingkiindness with actions of compassion beginning right within our ocean of being… in this potent moment of eternity, we have such a beautiful opportunity to stand solidly together saying yes to peace, to wage peace with every breath and every step… i’ve been a peace activist for many decades and still know that peace is the way and that most of us want peace; it is my intention at this crossroads moment to do my part knowing our survival depends on it… thank you for being peace in this moment, in every moment…
