My grieving deepens as this disgusting regime continues trampling its way through this country and world. Love is a powerful and overwhelming fore’s and it is the only way. Thank you for saying so.
Thanks for saying that, Ann. We need to make our grief more open-- it IS the way of love, as you and I know only too well. It is capable of comforting us even in our pain, and eventually leads to a mature hope, one that is fed by a more secure understanding.
In power dynamics, projection objectifies. Love witnesses. Two totally different inner postures which hit at the inner/outer alignment or misalignment a la Yeshua in the GoT and elsewhere.
Love as the a priori guiding mechanism offers the way out of the gridlock of duopoly, sovereign power and bare life, and the thanatopolicization of life. Erudite insight here! Power can create states of exception all they want. But Love don’t need no credit card to ride this train!
Thanks for reading, Kathie! By the way, if you yet to see The Odyssey, it’s in IMAX format at AMC Southcenter. Saw this week; it’s a masterwork with a deeply prophetic bent. Highly recommended!

I’ve been thinking about your piece quite a bit.

Thanks Ben! An important distinction. (GoT refers to the Gospel of Thomas, one of the esoteric gospels found at Nag Hammadi.)

“the thanatopolicization of life”! 💕

I have seen it yet! Will try to see it in the big screen for sure👌 Thanks Stuarto!
The five contrasts are just the examples that came to me. The list is incomplete. If you come across others that make sense, please share them here.
Thanks for reading it!
