Dispassionately.

I accuse some of my friends of over-reacting to the perils/pitfalls of life. But then, maybe that's what I do. Over-react to the outcome of a baseball game. When the Chicago Cubs lose in a heartbreaking fashion. I allow it to be heartbreaking. Which is an over-reaction. Really, I shouldn't allow myself to be heartbroken. Over anything. That would make me more like god. Because I suspect god is never heartbroken. God puts himself above it all. And is just a dispassionate observer. Often, we humans ask, how can god sit idly by and allow tragic event after tragic event to occur? Maybe god is telling us to not over-react. To act more like god. Dispassionately. --Jim Broede
