Running Toward The Light
I am running, running now -- toward the Light. The Light! The Light!
It is a miracle. Moment by moment, it seems almost, there is more Light coming into my diseased eye, now healing from its last round of Darkness.
Hour by hour my vision seems to get brighter and brighter.
Sometimes almost moment by moment, growing clarity comes into my sight, my vision field expanding, expanding.
OMG!
I am so grateful, so happy.
The brightness is beautiful!
I feel such gratitude for the gentle hands and advanced medical technology that has brought me this miracle.
And – in my meditations this morning I wonder with frustration and great sorrow in my heart how and why it is that SEEING all that there is to be SEEN – the most complete truth of truths, the whole reality of reality, as close as one can see of it – can be anything but top priority -- glorious, freedom.
Seeing all became a death defying challenge for me at eight years old. My mentally disturbed mother put a curse on my innocent self to not see what I saw. Forever after “my seeing” what she did not want me to see became a threat to her, punishable by the prospect of my death. No wonder ordinary seeing has been such an ordeal for me.
I fought this wicked curse – always; a battle to the finish, physically, spiritually, emotionally, psychologically. And, I am winning, am I not? Seeing is my biggest victory, my highest reward.
So here I am now, blessed and in AWE!
Like an astronaut high above the earth, I can see and it is glorious!
Please celebrate with me.
Join me please in seeing ALL there is to see. Hold back nothing!
