Doing The Lord’s Work

This scene is beyond traumatizing for me. Righteous, evil, coward corruption….insanity. The hiding behind a facade of goodness to do the most monstrous of things, in plain sight of many. Same terrifying ego-maniacal scneario with Derek Chauvin looking directly into the crowd and camera, snuffing out a man’s life, with confidence. Very very familiar- Performative virtue- in which appearing to be acting in virtue, TRUMPS actually living a virtuous life. Jilan Catherine Ghoneim

I am in a program of recovery for those whose lives have been affected by someone else's drinking, drug use, mental illness. I am newly learning faith, hope, and courage, practices not witnessed by me, in my childhood, with my family. Sadly, No Contact, as a last resort, is how I keep safe from diminishing words and actions directed at me. I think I have listened for the last time to how I deserve mistreatment. By holding out for something more wholesome and loving, I have been both banished and demanded to return. I prefer serenity to proximity. I will continue with my program and faith in the best possible outcome, so long as I do my part-- to stalk GOD as if my life depends on it.
