Rugged Crosses

For me, but not for my kids, it was The Old Rugged Cross teaching my ego/eco-logic crossed to believe adults could deprive their Earthly minds of sacred co-passionate investment and yet thrive uniformly healthy bodies of equitable wealthy, yet sacrificially lonely, dignity. Not until I uncovered The Blessings of the Earth and Sky (K. Patton, J.S. Bach) did I think to wonder win/win why Earth and sky, crossed and yet recovered more resilient Earthly bodies together, than apart, with skyward polyphonic minds soaring not uniform aspiring prey avoiding predators yet unity inspiring Earth's communal co-relationships. How ever did we get this strange left-brain nightmare, wealthy bodies can be severed, crossed out away from mental passion for health, co-responsive interdependent webs of Earth and Sky secular and sacred, liberating science and liberal multi-enculturing arts, integrity's double-crossed communion of Earth's original healthing wealthy purpose.
