Today we went to a Christmas fair. I cried like a baby listening to the choir! Lexi and I were discussing over lunch today how we are feeling so much deeper here. More than we want to! I ordered an easel today through the company Savana will be teaching for at the fair. A gentlemen who is recovering from leprosy does beautiful woodwork, and he will design an easel for Lexi. A deaf man took the order.
It was so touching and emotional going through this Christmas fair, where so many people have laid down there lives to serve the sick and the poor. And yet these people are all the richer for investing in so many people's lives who have been cast aside by "regular" society. People who are full of life and love and yet trapped in a body they did not choose. It makes me want to change. I want to be good. Yet, I am struggling with definition of what is "good" like never before. I don't think you or I define good. We just come up with words that make us feel good. I will stop pontificating.
All in the light, and yes I mean "light" of Christmas. Oh how we have missed the light for the *bling*. My feelers hurt lately. It's not a bad thing, it's just a sideways sometimes upside down thing.
Did you know that I now have friends that are socialists.......and yes communist? What a small small world I once lived.

Such wonderfully fertile ground you are, fresh for the planting of deeper & more wonderful truths. You are so fortunate to be blessed with open heart & spirit! Love you, father is loving you a lot too! S
ReplyDeleteI love that you are experiencing, changing, and growing. I've heard these similar things from Joey and Melisa. Seeing life and how differently other people experience it is such a humbling experience, isn't it? You (all of you) will be so much richer and blessed so much deeper for having lived across the globe. I love you!! Gramma Bobbi
