"We did not choose these times - the times instead choose us.
If we are here for this is is meant that we are meant to be a part of a time of one of the greatest lessons - and perhaps - if we are up to the task - the greatest achievements."
Thank you so much for this! It really speaks to me. Thanks also for the link to Rational Spirituality, I really enjoyed reading his post as well.
My father was flying B-52s out of Maine and over the northeast USA during the Woodstock era. The line “I dreamed I saw the bomber death planes flying shotgun in the sky turning into butterflies above our nation” always gets me.
Thank you for the shoutout, KW, and for your enlightening slice of wisdom. The video you included is one of the best presentations on spiritual development I've seen. In these perilous times, I believe those in our community here on Substack are called to be watchmen (Ezekiel 3). We each do what we can; remaining silent is not an option.
Thanks so much and I am so glad I saw your own post in time. Yes, the video surprised me ar how well it does. And yes we are watchers, witnesses, and brought to witness whatever truth we can find.
We may be stardust, we are golden,
but we’ve got to find our way back to the garden.
(Joni Mitchell, Woodstock)

Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I trust in our spirits to figure this out together.
We are stardust. We are golden. We are billions year old carbon. And we’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden.
Yes indeed and the songwriters have been clued in for a few years!

Great comment thanks. I can relate. I knew lots of people who were in the military during the flower child era.
I’d say strait away we are divine dust and will return divine dust if…if we acomplish and return the Fruit to the Tree. It takes a life time.
