“Afford” is a code word

“Afford” is a code word for “choose.” We choose military uncontrolled cost overruns over health care, giving in to our weariness over getting started on the college degree, or taking on the community project that pulls our heart.

Footprints in the Windsm # 1879–Let us remind us of ourselves/….

Footprints in the Windsm # 1879

Let us remind us of ourselves
We are here
We can hear
This essence
Beneath the hurly-burly
Beneath the jittery
Things we must get done
Here
Here are we
Ourselves
We have worth
Just as we are here
Put again mind
And Heart
To—as we are—
Ourselves
It is this covered-over
Essence of us
Individually and together
Which Life itself
Demands of us
Uncover!
Set in motion!
