Ongoing discussions of music, interconnection, detaching from these things which we can not know or determine, pooping in the potty, and star-wars continue in the light of the moment. I face the moment with calm and kind attention. I call the number and explain to the person on the telephone that I am in a position to make some arrangements with my creditors. They are surprised and delighted to hear from me. No, I haven’t given up on myself. Yes, I am right here. The stern voice explains that I would be in a better position if I chose to file bankruptcy. I ask why, musing at the thought of my creditors suggesting I not pay them, and instead correct my affairs with an attorney and the protection of chapter 11, or perhaps 13. The description and advice which follows is “I tell you sir, if you decide to continue making distress payments we will continue to hassle you and mark you poorly on your credit report. Trust me, if you file bankruptcy you’ll have a credit card, maybe even from us, in like 3 years. If you keep paying at your current rate you will never repair your credit. Personally I advise you to seek an alternate route.”

Speechless I thank the man and hang up the phone. It is amazing what comes from being present and available. The world continues to present gifts and blessings, irony and laughter everywhere I turn. I realize this is an awkward and somewhat private example of it, but where better to express my surprise and relief.

May the stars shine down on your beautiful head, easing you, loving you, guiding you, gently blessing you. Always and ever.
