Well put Robbin. We do make a difference, every single one of us in every single moment. Together we can help collapse the distance between action and consequences, which is the space where evil prowls.
I have believed for a long time that we humans are more powerful than we (most of us perhaps) can imagine. If we knew this truly in our hearts, the drama and distraction cycling around and within us would be dispelled and cancelled in a nano-second because it is all a lie. in addition, all the nefarious beings, entities, energies, frequencies and non-human forms that weaponize human virtues and perpetrate the lies and cause the confusion would be revealed and addressed. The anti-life agenda would be abandoned and we would enter the Golden Age of Peace and Prosperity that so many traditions promise us. It is a breath away so I agree with you Will, we have only to open our hearts and clear our minds, shine out our light to illuminate the truth and beauty of our human beingness.
I sometimes joke that words make magic, that's why we call it "spelling." You share my fascination with words and we are, so many of us now, experimenting with how to use them very differently. In Shlain's classic book The Alphabet and the Goddess, he tracks civilizations throughout history that have adopted written language and simultaneously suppressed the feminine in their cultures. Reading is linear, whereas art is holistic. Masculine, feminine. So, we have a real challenge using a fundamentally masculine, linear device (writing and reading) to attempt heart coherence.
Words are so powerful... for example, just your subtitle, "What's Between the Lines?" can lead one -- as it did me --to down a deep rabbit hole of exploration about different conversations I've had with people over the last week. And the very context of your writing -- "Something Wonderful is Happening" -- is, in and of itself -- such a wonderful context to approach each day. You always invite us to think more deeply than we otherwise might. Thank you!
Thanks Will. Another quality I find in your writing is the ability to inspire. Perhaps inspiration is the imagination's reaction to the presence of love. Whatever the alchemy, your writing inspires.

Beautiful Mike.

Likewise with your poetry Don. We are experimenting with using words differently.

To have an idea, a thought
To know exists an immense universe
A grand machine is life
To know that this world and you
Are but a small part of this machine
A machine we call God
To realize that all of life
Is one, is God, is love
Love is all there is
