Well you would have had a long, intense walk last night Brooke.

As usual you writings resonate with me. In studying Theology at the moment I’m being almost traumatised by all the ‘I’m Right, Your Wrong’ attitudes to ‘Everything’. At the same time I’m listening to an audio book titled ‘A Course in Mysticism and Miracles’ by John Mundy which is taking me deeper and deeper into the ‘Oneness’ world of Mysticism. It’s quite at odds with the stuff the institutionalised churches suggest is the way to go. I think of you a lot of the time with your struggles and in a selfish way am so glad I’m my age, I can put aside/ignore day to day needs and just BE for long periods. For what it’s worth and probably not very helpful my readings all point to ’the more the suffering/struggle the deeper the end point’. But of course there is no ‘end point’, we just get back to where we started from! In a much as I can be a father figure/mentor to you I want to reach out and rescue you from your aches, but in a spiritual sense this would be only be a set back for you. I was having a meal with a friend, with whom I about to meet today, who poured out his great struggle that he couldn’t pray to God because of what God allows to happen in the world. There is something almost perverted about the ’need to suffer to grow’ nature of spiritual growth.

I’m really glad that you’re back writing, I have really missed it.

I’m also happy to catch up again sometime if you wish, you did promise me an email?? But I understand.

Many blessings Peter
