DEFYING GRAVITY

  Yes. I saw the movie of that song. That song and sequence was true to the gossip, unbelievably well done. As the Climax of Part One of Wicked it certainly left us wanting more for which we must wait until next November. If it is anything like Part One, it is well worth the wait. 

The stars did not align well for me this morning, so a brief posting today and an urging to read the most recent postings for they are truly my troubled, worried, inner soul. So today, a few words before I must get going with the rest of my crazy day.  

We all must defy gravity. It is not just the physical act of flying against the force of gravity which holds us against the face of this earth. It is defying the gravity that keeps us immobile, in a crippling state of inertia. We run in ruts from which we do not know how to escape. We run as hamsters do on an endless getting nowhere wheel of futility. Getting nowhere fast. Simply tiring ourselves out in a futile exercise which drains all energy and opportunity to effect change.

We must make our exercises count. We must see a result, flatten out that wheel and insist that our run covers a distance, that we see an outcome we can measure, trust and be proud of. Only in that way can we defy gravity which can manifest itself in one's personal life, one's public life, wherever one wanders. It can be in the life of a nation as well. 

This nation is presently under the strong, deep, magnetic pull of a super gravity It has induced fear It has induced cowardice. It has induced and condoned moral turpitude. It has allowed the worst of humanity, its low weights of little to no account in a sane world, to rise to the surface, as gravity wants nothing of them, discounting them.

 WE know, though, they have the ability to turn life upside down, to co-opt the might of gravity against its will and wreak havoc upon this world. WE must defy that attenuation of gravity and return it to its proper role - proper and wise use of its powers and abilities. Defy it and obey it, work with it or against its lure of inertia, with wise leaders knowing the when, the why and the how.  

More tomorrow, topic unsure.

Have a good day and be safe.

Always walk with G-d.
