When we decide to embrace hope—when we choose to make that our goal and our message—we release a flow of energy that cannot be overcome. Hope is a light that darkness can never contain. -- Episcopalian bishop and Choctaw citizen Steven Charleston
Today is Friday, January 17, 2025, the last weekday of President Biden's administration. Monday, January 20th, begins the administration of President-elect Donald Trump.
I experienced a self-fraught day or two this week, dreading the next four years of a president and his mega-billionaire friends and their more-money mentality draining America...period.
All the while, mind you, continuing with my morning quiet-time meditation on love and learning about love as all.
I wondered why I felt and feared I was sliding into dementia when I know full well, but forget too easily, that unquiet thoughts breed unquiet lives. Unquiet is quieted by love alone, dressed as acceptance. Our fine intellect brings us another self-determined objective which cannot get us there...that just leads to feelings of guilt for our unquiet thoughts.
We have but one need...to turn to God, ever with us, or, in truth, to not turn from God.
So here we are with grace, gratitude and hope, living this day one-day-at-a-tune with God at the wheel and in our wheelhouse.
Thank you.
