Editor,
The following untitled prose poem by Kitty O’Meara has been widely shared countless times. Here it is one more time. It certainly has helped me in my thinking and attitude during this trying time.
“And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently.”
“And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless and heartless ways, the earth began to heal.”
“And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved the losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.”
