Reinventing Ourselves

Prior to this pandemic-enforced isolation, most of us didn’t consider reinventing ourselves in any way, much less the drastic changes we are making today. In two months’ time, we have done a 180-degree turn in many aspects of daily existence. The way we check out books from the library, how we hunt and gather food, meeting with friends in clubs and churches, having our hair done and other one-on-one body experiences — well, I’m sure you could each fill up a page with things you used to do by rote, which now must be planned. Our creativity — individually and commonly — is growing exponentially! When we think outside the box in one way, it leads to yet another expansive thought. Whereas a few weeks ago we couldn’t envision a new life, now we are living one and finding ways to enjoy the new way and grow in our vision of what will be. I’m not sure why, but the words which come to mind are “mazel tov”!!

"Ontology receives less attention than physiology. Why? Recause mortal mind must waken to spiritual life before it cares to solve the problem of being, hence the author's experience; but when that awakening comes, existence will be on a new standpoint."
