KK: Loving, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I sense a change in you that feels ominous. Again, if I am wrong please don't be angry, just CORRECT me. Do I read between the lines that you would "off yourself" to bring attention to the crisis? I have been sitting with this upsetting feeling for 2 days.
L: Oh, sweet sister, no, no, no... nothing about 'offing myself,' ...it wouldn't be noticed, nor have any good effect. But no, the first and last it is in my mind is your mention of it here. I'm so glad you were able to voice your concern. No, no, no, no... Nothing of the sort. I wish it could be that easy, but I've known for some time, and more clearly these last few weeks, I'd be doing anything like that... in a graveyard - we are so Dead in this culture. I am NOT to waste what life I have.
KK: Phew! I am very glad to hear it! xo

But
yes, a big change. One that will persist, I suspect. Nothing is true
because Einstein said it. It is true because it is True. Same with
Jesus, or anyone. This pic, right, is a mashup of two things he may have said,
but for the first time so clearly, because of experiences I've had these
recent weeks... hits me as the roseatta stone - Our breath by breath,
dna given purpose, is to lay down our lives for the global neediest.
I've been circling in on this for 15 years, but I've hit a much greater
level of clarity. Lay down our life for the neediest... with every
breath. Schweitzer, Teresa of Calcutta, Malala, Mandela, Gandhi... this
is what they did. And some of us place the likes of these at the
pinnacle - I do. Because we westerners live so opposite of this we've
moved to such a non-adaptive place - we can't see the need to stand,
crazily, for our kid's future. We are too far away from home - lay down
your life for the neediest, with every breath. With little hope for my
efforts for the world, I still see my Path now as doing just that -
laying down my life for the neediest, over the next whatever years I'm
given. I'd LOVE for that to be on hunger strike with 10,000 others here
in DC, but I've been down that road - folks in a graveyard don't hunger
strike. But the disease is we've moved away from home - lay down your
life for the neediest in creation (not bio-fam - we are ALL Family, ALL
connected. Ebola in a non biofam kid can just as easily kill my biofam
kid as another biofam kid can - we are ALL Family). I need to, as best I
can, find, walk, and Live the path - lay down your life, every breath
,for the global neediest. So pitifully little, but it is the root
cure, I'm so sure now, and the only cure that can save us from going
over the cliff. Over coming weeks I'm sure I'll be posting more, but at
my blog. I review posts on FB now but it is just such a substitute of
talk for action... I think I can no longer feed into it. (((((HUGS)))))
and much Loving forever, no matter whatKK: Like!
L: :-) LOL.
