If our times were a scriptural story - and what times aren’t? - this piece would be an eloquent exegesis of the deep and profound moral issues we’re facing. This is nothing new in the course of history. Mendacity, greed, unalloyed hatred and cruelty have woven through history of men and women as these four horsemen lurk like thugs in ALL our hearts. The three notables you cite at the end - Ghandi, Pico and Sadat - are examples to the extreme of how our better angels can and must prevail. And your life, David, is another fine example of how good can prevail in a life whose hardships could have easily gone south.
Thanks for this three part series. Looking forward to the next.
Brother Marc, I treasure your kind words and support! Thank you so much. There are many directions to go with hardship, and I’ve had the great good fortune to learn from others with more than my own. I appreciate your kindness in affirming that what I’m trying to communicate to others about what I’ve come to understand that might be of use is coming through. ❤️
