That opaque interlude of childhood is far behind us.
Worn and tattered and splayed by uneven, unreliable memory…
Spread thin until it’s meaningless, no flavor, no substance…
Just unrelenting nonsense that needs to be stared down; gone but not forgotten.
We are in the heart of meaning NOW!! Standing, pacing, one step in front of the other, dealing with what needs be…
Maybe the opaque is required… maybe we need to grow before we can see behind that curtain and roll into the arms of Angel’s.
