Footprints in the Wind^sm # 1846

I see G as bigger, more real, more participatory than do the magicians.

A man stole some aspirin. A police officer gave chase. A struggle and shots. The man is paralyzed. Does G punish a small infraction so out of proportion? Does G have bigger things in store with the paraplegia? Is G more entwined in all of it? Experiencing the pain, the loss of future, the gain of future, feeling the child-pedestrian’s injuries? Is G a deeper quality? Is G the unfolding of the whole scenario? Is G the everyday? The entwining? The whole unfolding? The helping, the running, the speeding off, the trigger pulls, the siren of the ambulance? Ordinary? The daily, the daily, the daily?

Please pass it on.
