April 29, 2018, Prescott-
While it is a bit windy, outside
and there is a fire threatening
folks in a rural area up north,
I find myself in a calm mood again.
I was shocked to learn,
yesterday,
of a trusted friend’s
mid-life crisis.
The person is
taking steps , though,
to deal with some
deep-seated issues.
I went to exercise
at my local gym,
and then watched
“Inifinity War”,
the latest comic book-based
film saga.
Sleep came fairly easy
and was intense.
A pleasant breakfast,
and a nice greeting
from a new friend,
who’s far away,
made for a relaxing morning.
This is the Ninth Day of Ridvan.
On this day, in 1863,
the weather cleared
and the flood waters
subsided,
on the riverine island,
where Baha’u’llah
and His family/followers
were preparing for their
journey from Baghdad
to what is now Istanbul.
I will join several friends
in mid-afternoon,
to commemorate the occasion.
Now, though, it’s time
to honour those whose
service to the Red Cross,
this past year,
has been above and beyond.
I’m not blustery inside.
Sounds like a good weekend! Glad you’re calm inside ~ ~ ~

Probably I am ignorant, there is Internet and other ways to know… Who or what is Baha’u”llah?And Balla’i?
I heard or read the last name somewhere🤔

Baha’u’llah was a Persian spiritual leader who founded an independent Faith, in 1863. Baha’I means “Follower of Light”. We believe in the Oneness of spiritual truth and the Oneness of mankind.
