DJesus Unchained
I was driving to pick up Tin and passed the church on Canal and Jeff Davis that always has the best teasers on their marquee – today it was DJesus Unchained.
Earlier I had gotten out of the shower and taken a look at my shower curtain – the one with the goldfish jumping out of the water. I purchased it as I had had that dream of Tin and I watching a fish jumping up in the air – which meant unbridled joy.
The image of the fish on the shower curtain had caught my eye because I had just seen this online:
When I got to school, I saw my friend in the playground and went to get Tin (who I must say looks like he has grown and aged right before my very eyes – that four year old marker – sheesh). But when Tin and I walked back out of the school, everyone was in the house that has had the solar container out front for months now. We went in too and learned all about a new solar switch that reduces energy and even the need for dozens of solar panels – it is revolutionary – and just hearing about it took my breath away – I kept nodding and thinking, a ha, here it is.
It is no loss on me that this is all happening on this corridor of Soraparu where Waldorf is, where the Raphael Academy is, and now where an invention that is being deployed on army bases and third world countries is happening as I type. These leaps in thinking, in deed, in action, are becoming more common place. The doors are opening.
I had lunch with a friend today at Toups Meatery on Carrolton, and we spoke about the connections that occur when you just sit back and open yourself up to the universe. It’s a wonder.
I came home and was invited to Dokusan at the Zen Center. Yes, an invitation to meet a master, as a student, and further my practice.
Close your eyes, now imagine me leaping out of the bayou and into the air. That’s how I feel inside. DRachel Unchained. DJesus!
