Dear A-Rhodd, your survival story is one I was waiting for, praying for. A month on, I thank you for its beauty and terror. Your telling of the immigrant's deep voice singing a love song... "a portal to the cosmos, I took a rare deep breath and surrendered to my own internal expanse of desperation." May we all be that small island of coherence, be free inside, all the way through.
"When a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos
have the capacity to shift the entire system to a higher order. "
Dear A-Rhodd, thank you for sharing your heart-full, raw honest truth. Thank you for your beautiful brilliant writing. I’m in awe of your sharing and grateful to read it. Thank you thank you “we are all related”
Harrowing indeed. It is so painful to read what you have written and feel the full weight (not a fraction of the weight) of your and so many others experience. I feel such huge grief and incredulity at the system - how is this supposed to restore or repair ANYTHING. I’m so sorry you (& Lynds) had to go thru this. May it serve some higher good. 🙏🏼💔🤲🏼
Wow. Just wow. A-Rhodd, your writing is so intensely necessary. I want everyone I know to read it. To learn what you know and what you have been through and what you feel...and how you connect. How everything is connection. You have an incredible talent to convey emotion through words. It's powerful. I am so very grateful to have "met" you and to be able to learn from you. *we do this til we free us* Peace to you, my friend.
This is a harrowing story. So glad you persevered through this!
