Was with a group of buds just now
in the Stillness when suddenly I could see
difficult people as the Transfigured Christ.
Not mortals at all but beams of light!

Yes that was their place in my life.
Not an enemy but a huge bright Light.
For where I desired to go spiritually
every shocking wake up call was
exactly what I had needed.

Now when difficult memories invade
I’ll know they were and are necessary lights.
Wondering though why the Christ-man is not seen more universally as a body-less, irradiance of unending Light.
