| 1468284 | 2020-04-20 02:06:00 | INTERESTING AND THOUGHT PROVOKING Here is a poem written by an Irish Poet, Kathleen O'Meara in 1869- after a plague devastated Ireland in the late 1860's- How appropriate for today . SOMETHING LOVELY And people stayed home and read books and listened and rested and exercised and made art and played and learned new ways of being and were still and listened more deeply someone meditated someone prayed someone danced someone met their own shadow and people started thinking differently---- And people healed . . . And in the absence of people who lived in ignorant ways dangerous, mindless, and heartless . . . . The earth began to heal--- And when the danger ended and people found themselves . . . They grieved for the dead and they made new choices and dreamed of new visions and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully just as they had been healed . Kathleen O ' Meara (1869) |
