Cosmic Star Gazing


9-11-2019
Meaning
I am searching for meaning, one of the greatest adventures of life. (Today’s date not being lost on me.)  I haven’t been able to write for a few weeks because my right arm was in a cast, hand surgery.  A lot of meaning was lost at the loss of writing, I am grateful to have experienced it, makes me more grateful that I can write.  I filled my thermos this morning at 4 glancing at my new avocado plant in the kitchen window, spindly now, but holding great hope for me for our future meaning.  I am now sitting in the dark watching a kiln, for me, much like watching the cosmos birth a star, as I tinker with the oxygen and gas, just a tad, to get great blue flame out the top to let me know the kiln is filled with carbon and Ox Blood Red glaze is being created, creating meaning.  I have read the Ancient Text, Revelation, The Future Telling, sitting by this cosmos box roaring and Meaning is here with me, Present in The Word, In The Future, In The Fire, like The Master with me, His toddler.  I am an old man, and seismic change is coming for me, a few years in the future but coming non-the less.  When I was young I could change on a dime but oldness has considerably slowed my willingness, ability, and thoughtfulness of changing.  Change, life change, holds such tremendous potential for meaning one needs to slow to a totter to ensure that you live aware-ly of the tectonic nature of your life changing.  Revelation chapter 5 moved my soul to Cosmic Stargazing this morning resurrecting meaning for an aging man for striving plants, good coffee, firing kilns, writing and sitting quietly with, “The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the heir to David’s throne.”
