Jeweled Breadcrumb #27 : staying in one place, arrive everywhere
Unleashing my mind to leap from one man’s business into another’s, all I accomplish is adding fuel to the others’ distress while wearing myself out.
Where are you going?
i am going to eight living rooms
of fired FBI officials
collecting the tears of those
conducting their jobs with integrity
i am going to my nation’s neighbors
allies and officials
collecting the tears of those
betrayed by my country
i am going to the oval office
appealing to chief official
collecting the tears of his
better angel
STOP!
What good will all your traveling do?
Entering FBI living rooms
you multiply confusion.
Entering foreign lands
you add alien intrusion.
Entering oval office
you stoke retribution.
Better to stay home
tune your ears
empty your heart
collect unadulterated kindling.
Attending stellar source
desire to travel glows
illumining lucid master
wherever you go.

Unleashing my mind to leap from one man’s business into another’s, all I accomplish is adding fuel to the others’ distress while wearing myself out. Better to be still, present among others without adding an edge. Allow the hidden master’s light to secretly transform night.
Thank you for reading these words,
written by grace and the grit of a real human being. Debra Asis

The assignment that brings me to the writing of these words is to unapologetically tell the story of how God nudges, cajoles, drop kicks and masters me to be the real human being that I am … becoming … following God’s Jeweled Breadcrumbs. My daily writing challenge for 2025 is to share the Breadcrumbs with you.
