blip #1 - Civil Discourse
"Civil Discourse", a collection of 8 songs, starting with the pre-release, "Let Love In", written June 1, 2020, is the culmination of historical observation about Love's triumph in the face of fear, disdain, disillusionment, injustice, and even hate. It requires courage and the willingness to lay one's life down for Love's sake. Jesus, Gandhi, Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., Leymah Gbowee, Christina Noble, Daryl Davis, Romero, Corrie Ten Boom, and others have shown the way. Love is more than a feeling, sentiment, or attachment to an individual or a particular people group. A person of Love is willing to put nothing else, no one else, including our own desire and understanding, above acting on what Love requires of us in relationship to all that is. It is the narrowest way and very few find it.
What if we had the courage to aim for Love with every interaction, every word, every thought, every attitude, every response, every day of our lives?
Broken hearts ... let Love in.
