That neither time nor space are uniformly linear has been taught in our world’s most ancient religions ~ and is being confirmed today by the discoveries of the new quantum sciences.

Whole and Perfect

They tell us we can heal the past
Cocreatively
Creating something which will last
Affirmatively

Less than the rewriting
Of fact’ual history
But more than mere delighting
In endings happily

Envisioning the process,
My inner eyes can see
A way to cut the losses
Retroactively

Preserving truth’s part
Undisturbed:
Begin with your heart
Unperturbed

By actions self and
Others of
All past held tenderly in hand
Of universal love

Knowing that ev’ry event
Must Be
For the Divine hath surely meant
Exper’ience all diversity

Knowing securely also
That all of seeming time
Contained is in the Now
And is sublime

And thirdly knowing
Every fate
Any sowing
Can create

Is manifest some
Otherwhere
Though we can’t go
From here to there

We can envision
Timelines as
Rows of stitching
Just as was

Grandma’s knitting
Rising in view
Where she was sitting
Needles to

If in some past row there were
A dropped or twisted stitch
There was a way that she prefer
To correct the glitch:

Rather than each row since that
Completely to undo
Gently slid the needles back
Her most recent stitches through

Then with total love and care
Her cloth’s existing structure for
Worked patiently back down to where
Mistake existed had before

As gently reconnecting
After she was done
Penitent, perfecting
A whole and perfect garment won
