[Music this morning “Oh Happy Day”]
A reminder of the fundamental questions: who, what, where, when, why, how:
1 In the beginning (when!) God (who!) created (what!) the heaven and the earth (where).
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said (how!), Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good (why!): and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Dream recall from last evening/early morning:
I had gone to Washington to lead a new (something: project, effort …) but I got there early and saw how shabby it had become, so I started cleaning and painting. I had put on work clothes, so was not recognized. Everyone either ignored me or just treated me like dirt because I had dirty clothes on.
I had to start cleaning the bathrooms – there were separate ones for Dems and Reps – not just men/women – and I was in the Dem bathroom, down on my knees washing all the filth and grime from the toilets, when several (a few) of the senators or reps came in – and I recognized some Republican leaders. I was lying on the floor to reach behind the toilets and called out “Hey! What are you doing in here?”
And they all laughed out loud – not knowing who I was, thinking I’m just a toilet-scrubbing worker – “Man, we’re all the same! Don’t you know?”, laughing at the biggest of inside jokes. And I knew what a fake the “party politics” had become and how deceived so many were.
They were talking about what they would say and do “in public” – who would play what “roles” – laughing at the joke they were playing. They all leave the bathroom, and I get some sickness – from them? – from the filthy toilets? From all the mold and tendrils of grime? So I had to go to the “official doctor” of the congress – its Fauci!!! – laughing in a white lab coat.
He doesn’t recognize me either – there’s no exam or test – he says, “Raise your hands over your head”. I do and he’s laughing with the others, “Yeah, he’s sick. Take two Ivermectin”, and they all walk away.
I go to where I’m supposed to get the two Ivermectin and am told, “It’ll be at least two days to get it.”
One of the people standing nearby says, “But he’ll die before then if he doesn’t take it now.” Another voice answers “Yeah, too bad.” There is ringing laughter in the hallway as I wake.
