On Reflection

[sdi]

"The world is a mirror: to see good in the world is to see good in yourself, and to see evil in the world is to see evil in yourself. You can tell a lot about someone by how they view others."

(An entry in my diary, dated 13 Mar 2011.)

Interesting synchronicity!

I am also reminded that seismologists anticipate an earthquake that will level the coastal Pacific Northwest. I suppose when there are so many people all over the place, any disaster is a big disaster.

I went ahead an added an all god is good tag to my blog here—this is something I think about often, and it is well worth remembering that Mars (violence) and Saturn (death) are no less divine, and no less good, than the rest! "Why," then, becomes very valuable meditation-fodder.
