We cannot not be

In the mailbox this November day named after Freya…

The presence and processes of creation are infinite and everywhere, likely always, and forever. You cannot not be in the process. We're made of/from it. There’s no other place to be. But here’s the problem — we’re not present to presence. We’ll make any excuse to be somewhere other than right here. Right here, right now never seem enough, we’re almost always somewhere else. – adapted from Richard Rohr, homily, November 30, 2014 (Center for Action and Contemplation: 2014).
