i loved Runes. Tarot. and i learned much from the study of these. The Rune i loved most, and cast a lot was Consider the Uses of Adversity….i don't remember the Proper name of it….it's been a long time. But i remember always those words and they have held strong. Consider the Uses of Adversity.
now..i read the Earth, the dirt and pine tracings. They say the same. and in the same unequivocal gentle way…Consider The Uses Of Adversity.
How fortunate your comment is to me this morning. This reminder is exactly what i need. I consider adversity daily and find a way to use the thought to produce actions…sometimes just maintenance tasks, sometimes art, but all crucial to survival. For example, I consider adversity when I simply see what food is on hand, then mix and match, make do. Having sated my need, I discover I’m happy. Therefore, I conjecture, You must be a very happy person, because I’ve watched you do just that for so long.
