Pistis tries to reclaim 'now' (weekending January 16th 2021)

 

istis tries to reclaim 'now' (weekending January 16th 2021)

‽istis sits with one confused and going, gently (though many not so gently rage) - and tries to reclaim ‘now’, but perhaps, possibly, maybe only just manages ‘then’ and ‘not yet’…

‘Then’: when we gathered and hugged, and worked, and partied, and travelled on trains and buses and planes, and sang, and cheered and chanted, and dined and drank, and painted, and read, and played, and familied, and sat and watched, and learned and taught, and worshipped and prayed, and walked, and visited, and just did nothing – together - and thought nothing of it…

‘Not yet’: looking forward to a future: perhaps more, possibly better, maybe together again…

And ‘now’ we wait, despite, with hope…
