So I am not sure when it happened but one morning I woke up and turned on the tv only to find myself watching a televangelist casting out evil spirits out of members of the audience who ( I guess) needed spirits cast out of them. I watched strangely fascinated and listened to the preacher tell the people how “the power of Christ compels them to be healed” . The phrase has stuck in my head and at times I think of that statement and wonder, what it is that compels us in our lives. What is it that drags us forward, the power of Christ, yes that may be it but if not that then-what?
Times winged chariot coming near? The thought of a happier day ahead or possibly that we know no other way then forward. It reminds me of a gay friend in college who while driving would never go straight would gladly go “Gaily Forward”. Maybe it’s not so much what drives us forward as the fact that we keep moving…
Your moment of Zen.
