Amen! I “second” Barbara in this! Beautiful post Jagdish! Especially love you quote from Rumi!
I have a friend I meet “in the field” as often as I am able. I go there because I do not want him to ever “go to the field” to find himself alone, unheard, unloved/unhonored. I will not have it!
Everyone, per my faith and belief, deserves time, attention, love, an ear and “a hug and a kiss” (an embrace of honor and respect!).
Amen.

I am feeling a little bit guilty here! It’s cold and it’s late … and as I was about to take a drink of my water beside me, I noted an unidentified still “something” resting on the brim of my glass! A bug of sorts (that came in with tonight’s firewood) … lost his/her life. Father forgive me!

On Dec 24, 2021 me wrote on A Map To Here, by The Gnostic Writer:
God released me from “the mindset of needing to get somewhere other than where I am. Having an “I should” and “I’m not enough” personality, got me to a decade of mental illness. I learned, overtime, that my “ill thinking”was robbing me of life. I cannot be what I am not. I cannot do more than I am already doing. I can only do/be as He created me in this moment. If any thing or anyone pressures me to do/becoming something more, a red flag jump up boldly in my mind. Who helps me remember that the distance between me and 'being awake' is a mirage, you ask? God/Truth/Knowledge that I cannot win favor.

Idon't think I've ever had a problem with "altitude". Ironically, I fear/"am allergic to" altitude (of attitude). I was born grounded ... by DNA and life experience. The fact that I am but dust (most especially my brain) was fully understood and instilled in my formative years ... and remains today. My personal spiritual quest is what turned my life around. I met my Father God, Savior Jesus and Power in Holy Spirit. In Him, my dust became special!

My grandson (Frankie) has yet to be diagnosed, but has some "issues". My granddaughter (Evie) is 2 years younger than her bother Frankie, and has had to be super flexible in the past three years of her little 3 year old life with her 5 year old brother. Making a long story short, with hands on his hips, Frankie was lording over his sister yet once again (waiting for her to get out of a chair he did not want her to occupy. Grandma Amy's "response" today, was to pick her grandson up and walk him to the back yard to the swing set ... where we swangand talked about coopering, loving, being flexible, what was going on in his head ... feeling the sunshine and working on our "calm". Answers work for Frankie when talking about "Woolley Mamoths" ... but not for matters regarding "relationships". Best to respond.
