Guilty.
Actually, after all the serious illness and all the surgeries I’ve
been through since my aortic heart valve replacement in 2002, I am constantly
amazed that I’m still alive. I’ve also drunk the poison for decades … held
tight the anger over homophobia, as I’ve experienced it personally and in the
World at large. Some of you will perhaps remember some of that anger seeping
through in various ways.
I think I’m still alive because the Life Force has an innate persistency
… a built in determination to help us “get it”. Or, to put it in the language
of my faith journey, God loves me unconditionally, and keeps giving me
opportunities to “get it”. I think it’s working … finally! Though it will, I
think, be a life-long effort!
If we drink the poison, we’ll
“die” … in some way. Living will be curtailed, limited. Our contribution to
Life diminished. We need to learn to avoid poisons. One way is, always forgive
yourself and others.
Good luck … or, work hard … whichever … probably both.
