I toodled on over to Granma, as I do betimes, and immediately became engrossed in their news, as usual. Reading Fidel's letter to Daniel Ortega hit me in the heart. I feel I would do anything to give them that victory. I have noticed lately an inclination to hope for reincarnation while listening to the endless pontifications of various people, their insistence upon our "soul contracts" and our many lives spent living up to them, their stultifying habit of proclaiming us humans as the vital species of the cosmos.
I don't believe it. I have had a darn close look at the words of the ancients on this theme, and they meant to teach us that each moment is a lifetime, a birth and death, that we reincarnate ourselves in each moment... that at any moment we can choose to do better. Also that we are incarnations of everyone who ever lived or ever will live, that we have no business feeling superior to miscreants or inferior to oligarchs. So the New Age spirituality thing is mostly just pathetic to me. Pipe dreams piped by people without enough courage for real spirituality.
Sorry. And I hope I'm wrong.
I hope I get to come back. I will be Che. Until victory, always... FOREVER.
