I watch in fascination as people buy toilet paper and soap and hand sanitizers in mass quantities. I hear people are stealing protective masks from medical facilities. The odd thing (to me at least) is the lack of logic in this hoarding behavior. I feel certain you have thought of these things, too, so I won't belabor the point. I can see many positive things coming from this time of upheaval in our "normal" activities. Perhaps we will become more mindfully aware of our actions toward others. Maybe we will decide to be kind rather than right. I'm going to work on this one, because I always say I want to be kind rather than correct, but my actions prove me wrong. While I can't see myself fighting over a four-pack of toilet paper in the Wal-Mart, I can hear myself insisting something is not so about where things are planted in the garden. Good grief! And so, rather than pointing fingers at others who are doing things I don't understand, I'll try to understand me, which will hopefully lead to losing judgment and finding Love!
"Love inspires, illumines, designates, and leads the way. Right motives give pinions to thought, and strength and freedom to speech and action. Love is priestess at the alter of Truth. Wait patiently for divine Love to move upon the waters of mortal mind, and form the perfect concept." Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 454
