four encouraging words for the final three weeks before the US election...

Four words of encouragement for the next three weeks before the election in the USA:

1) Sit with some beauty so that you can balance the bullshit. I recommend Padraig O Tuama`s poetic reflections @ Poetry Unbound (https://onbeing.
org/series/poetry-unbound/). But do whatever nourishes your soul.

2) Make certain to get outside and breathe in some fresh air because Mother Nature is a time-tested healer. Autumn is a season of spiritual transition and we are being asked to learn to let go: so be like the leaves in the NE and recognize that the old order is dying and something new is about to be born that is beyond our control. But, please, take time to be still - and breathe. 

3) Stay in touch with those you love - and make the effort to go the extra mile. Love heals all wounds. All fears. All anxieties. Not perfectly. And not always the way we want. But, in the long run, in the ways we need. (Oh yes, and BLOCK all trolls as they will eat your heart and wear out your soul.)

4) Try to limit your time with so-called news to one hour every day. Total. Don't cheat. Take in what is happening. Hold it close in prayer. And then let it go - any more time with the craziness is like worry which some have called praying for something bad to happen.
