President Piñera of Chile said at the ceremonious rescue of the 33 trapped miners, "God has tested us this year." I can attest to that on Chile and my own behalf! I feel the pain and joy and relief and disbelief of the world over the amazing recovery of the men involved in the longest entrapment in history. I felt the same after the earthquake happened in Februrary. And I feel the very same about my own life this past year; God has indeed tested me, and perhaps I have also emerged, like the miners, a little malnourited, a little unaccustomed to the light, with plenty of stories to tell, but safe. I definitely didn't suffer as they did, but my life is changed. That's, in one dramatic metaphor, is how I feel.
Fuerza Chile!!
And how appropriate that is was via the Phoenix! I praise God for your emergence. Go, KK. Go, God.

ReplyDeleteI want to be around any version of you I can - newly emerged, tested, blinded by the light - I pray I get to visit you in your element one day. I love you. Poet-on, girl, poet-on. Aunt Julie (love the gitty-up pose photo)
