We all know that unhealed wounds need somehow to be opened (named)
and anointed for healing to begin. We
also recognize that one dynamic energy that can anoint a wound, preparing it to
open, is an outpouring of love.
Is it possible to believe, as some African tribal peoples
believe, that all persons are invited to name and walk into (wrap their
embracing arms around) their personal wound if they want to find their personal
wholeness and gifts? Whenever a child is born with physical limitations in this
tribe, the entire tribe celebrates, because they so strongly believe that when
this child walks into her or his wound, she or he will be a tribal healer.
We as a global human community have currently heard consistent
invitations to flood our parched acts of inhumanity (woundedness) with daily
loving energy. Is that the outpouring it
will take to love one another into sufficient global freedom, into our fully
gifted humanness? Are we ready for the
dailiness that would require?
