Marjorie, I love this essay so much. Thank you for writing and sharing it. And your writing is wonderful. It gave me some of the feeling of elation you describe. The essay even showed up like a synchronicity with other things in my life. My favorite part is when you describe how you felt, and how nothing could surpass the sense of well-being. I resonated with so many pieces of the narrative, including being the person who seems to be sent some kind of divine message, being a messenger without knowing it, and having uncanny small things line up in a meaningful way.

I sent this to Rod Dreher the author of The Benedict Option whose new book Living in Wonder will be coming soon. He mentioned it in this SubStack.

It seems to have evoked some interest.
