Eclipse 2024

There is to be an eclipse today -- a contrary moon having its dark side illuminated – nothing with free will strong enough to turn its back entirely on light – America in shadows now under veil of opposing contrasts The sun, reflective candle of near revelation, with mission of source inextinguishable like that burning bright in the heart of all men, Power All Mighty, lustrous center of brilliance indwelling unstoppable Truth will conquer! and love will once again heal our nation Trusting in God reaffirmed indelible!

Today is the day. It no longer has much meaning. At one time an eclipse was a precursor to future events. A perfect write for the event.

Hi Hilda; thank you. I will not even watch -- rather write on the computer. That type of stuff, of no interest to me anymore.

Hi Anne; thank you. Difficult to get truth out, but not impossible. Much of mainstream media has lost its soul. Personal gain and survival all that matters. Morals under attack, Christian faith under attack...they worship at the altar of Evil, unabated self-indulgence in my opinion. In the name of the environment, compassion for the needy, compassion for troubled youth, they have created a cesspool of spiritual depravity. Not easy to reason with Lunatics. Blessings my friend.

Aptly descriptive poem, my friend--a timely rendering on the eve of 2024 eclipse. --America in shadows now--yes, indeed!

Hi Vijay; lets hope that when the sun pokes its bright face out again, and light begins to advance over our nation, that people openly reflect on the light within -- no continent, no world can revolve healthfully, if its inhabitants do not change themselves, remain twisted to the fundamental core. Change must come from inside -- as Christ say, "The Kingdom in the palm of your hand," already. Needing only loving extraction.
