FOR AMERICA...SURVIVING THE ABYSS TOGETHER

When the unthinkable happens,
and does not relent,
we fall through our hubris
toward an inner flow,
an abiding and rebirthing darkness
that feels like home.

—Barbara Holmes, “What Is Crisis Contemplation?”

Dr. Holmes describes to a T and names what I unknowingly journaled about: crisis contemplation - "Contemplation after or during crisis is a stillness in the aftermath of a primal scream, the abyss of unknowing, and the necessity of surviving the trauma together. ..I can enter alone or with my community...we must relinquish control and seek grounding within the mystical depths of inner spaces."

The crisis, Donald J. Trump...the election...his cabinet selections, gifted me with the idea for our For America 8:00 AM, EST, three-minute meditation. 

Friends have joined me, we are inviting others to join, and we are inviting you. Please. For America.

Thank you.
