The theme of "solidarity" keeps coming up in various segments of my life. And I keep asking, as I examine in the incarnation, "To what extent are we called into solidarity with the world?" And as I reflect, I can't get away from the measurement of risk with regard to being IN solidarity with the world while ASSUMING the ethical systemic constructs that the world provides. Don't necessarily hear this verbalized but more so feel it. Maybe, I am at an intuitive loss because I haven't seen it modeled well. But I saw something different last night.
I've been attending AA for the last couple of weeks and had a long conversation with a guy who has been in recovery for over 18 years last night. His story was beautiful. His heart was real. No facade. He could tell a good story. And he just knew how to hang out. Have you ever come across someone who just knew how to hang out? Don't know how to describe it. I think I saw solidarity.
