“Our daily practices are how we avail ourselves of this ambush” I now can say what purgatory is ( not the end of life kind, but the great struggle between the false self and the true self; I am humbled how I would like to respond in kind; then at the moment I know my ambusher is at work; I just have to show up and engage with words and actions that catch even me by surprise. In my situation there is a lot of disruptive “covid speak”. The challenge is to keep addressing the injustice and be compassionate “to those who know not what they do.” Symeon’s words are me crying out to my ambusher.
