Prior to the group stillness, we talked further about courtesy and fairness in love. David submitted his thoughts on transparency, as part of the courtesy and fairness of love. There was some talk about Tar-al-hakim, whether or not he was a Mighty Messenger, and whether or not he would come through to give us more of his observations.

Alana : The child awaits the appearance of the beloved grandfather, and the uncle arrives first! (laughter) But sometimes we are pleased by the unexpected, and we allow that which has been awaited so long to be brought into consciousness through yearning; more softly, more gently, than the big surprise that is shouted with joy from the anticipation, but often with leaps and jumps of behavior that have a propensity to diminish and dilute the opportunity for the communion of love to be expressed in such a way as to saturate everyone in the room. Still, I say to you sweetly that I know, intimately, your willingness to be surprised by love, and to embrace the joy of welcoming me, even as you await Hakim, who has been promised to you.
