Jeff in Jerusalem (Healing Series Day #3ish)

Walking with Jesus

Dear Friend: Today, I am going to the Old City in Jerusalem to visit the site of Jesus’s death. His story has become remarkably meaningful to me in recent year(s), both because it has elements that reflect the last 4 years of my life, and because I am finding myself also lodged inside of the deeper question of what it is I am willing to die for, with respect to my own message and my inherent love for humanity. No matter what has happened, no matter how deeply I have become a “pre-bunked malinformant" (an Eric Weinstein term), I can’t shake the feeling that there is something in the heart of these challenges that is encoded within me, as me, for me. In other words, that these events are the grist for some kind of meaningful transformation that lay in wait for decades. Something that sees the world we live in more clearly, and that feels emboldened to bring its offering to the next level. I don’t know what that looks like yet, But I have a feeling that some piece of that puzzle may await me in the Old City. If nothing else, I hope to find a hearty piece of Baklava :). That would surely be a step forward. The pilgrimage continues.
