November 3, 2018, Prescott-
It’s no secret that there was a fair amount of darkness in my life, a few weeks ago. It wasn’t anyone’s fault, but I had to go through having my ego tested, to see whether I deserved to have the goodness that has been increasing, over the past four months, to continue.
The dark consisted of a number of anomalous situations, involving limited communication means and quickly changing circumstances. This is how darkness works: Obfuscate, confuse and deflect. Gaslighting is the name of its game.
Darkness, though, is the absence of light. Once sunshine re-enters, the confusion gets dispersed, Hopefulness, never completely gone, reclaims its share of the heart. The commonalities, between seemingly disparate anomalous situations, appear-even to my mind, that can be so slow on the uptake.
So, now, my left knee is functioning just fine again. A serious impediment to my finishing this academic year has been removed. A person, who had abruptly left my circle of friends, sent me a conciliatory note and I was reassured, by a mutual friend, that a small but important matter, involving said soul, had indeed been resolved.
My schedule can still be maddening, at times, and I realize I am the one who ultimately drives that bus. Compromises and occasionally saying “No” are arising, as things get more intense, during this holiday season. I have also figured out how to more effectively use the time I do have available.
There are only two non-negotiables, in that respect. I will attend my mother-in-law’s interment, sometime in the next few months, and my son’s nuptials, in the early Spring. Everything else is a matter of timing and of urgency. There are good reasons for synchronicity in the Universe, and we do well to not be afraid to prioritize.
There is another aspect to Light, which I am glad to be seeing more often these days: The importance of marriage and the family. I will discuss that further, in the next post.

I only run into this once in a while. Darkness is merely not perceiving the light. Understanding its nature does help me to look past the darkness.

But sometimes you have this feeling of peace in the dark which makes you fear the light.

I’m having a journey into mild darkness. My jeep is broken. I’m far from friends and services. Tomorrow will be interesting. That’s when I start hunting mechanics, tow trucks, and a rental car.

That story you remember took place in Newtown, CT, in the summer of 2016. I was at least not in an isolated area, for that one.
