I had a long discussion with one of my adult children.
I told her it will be all right.
To me, it feels like the same kind of crisis on a national level as when a person loses their footing.
For a while, it is scary and even dangerous, and then you find your footing and you are much more focused, much better directed.
It’s just that it is happening on a national level.
So many people feel disoriented and the stakes are really, really high.
But the solutions which are already in process are really, really powerful.
The things that are good are good from the ground up.
There are no leaks in what is good.
The things that are true are universally and eternally true.
The things that work, work for everyone.
Nature is not partial.
And so, if through greed and selfishness and short-sightedness, on the part of our country’s leadership, we go through this crisis, the solutions which have always been there, will become more apparent as we are moved to draw on them.
And moved we will be.
The minds of people are much more satisfied when they are given substantial work to do.
Shallow entertainment does not produce restfulness.
So we will employ our minds and we will employ our hands and we will become much, much happier in this new life which develops outwardly even as it develops inwardly.
The actual “truths which we hold self-evident” “that all men are created equal” and have the right to pursue happiness aided by a just government, are available to all of us once we seek to reestablish them in a way which benefits all of us.
It will be nice to see how our evolving new approach blesses and benefits all of us.
