Ghost

Mylo barks with passion at unseen shadows. Don’t we all… We see an image out of the corner of our eye. Turn we do quickly…but it is gone. Something familiar. Reminiscent of a feeling we had in our youth. Everything is possible, nothing can hold us back. A glimpse of someone we respected. A mentor. A friend. They are looking over our shoulder. Are they happy or sad? Do they wonder what happened?

One minute they were in our life. The next minute they were somewhere beyond our sight. The world was unexplored. Everything was new. We lived for a concept…a belief…a mission. Thirst we do for leadership. Not the authoritarian kind, the servant/leader kind. Engaging in what you were placed on Earth to do provides unparalleled pleasure. We run the other way. Send Aaron Lord…he is a good speaker…I am slow of speech…

The Shadow watches. Such confusion, strife, and tears. Suffering without purpose. Lost in the Slough Of Despond they are. Who has the best retort? Who can insult adroitly? The morphing of Christianity into a Tribe, a club of hate in the name of the Prince of Peace…

The hungry are not filled. The homeless are cold. Hard working people are summarily fired from their jobs without reason. The Safety Net for the elderly is cut down the middle. Elite smile and laugh at their brilliance. It is a bit funny when you have money…
