Strength of the Universe

It was a German farming community with rolling hills, and many mornings I’d start my day with a run to watch the sun rise. I was a Lieutenant in the 558th MP Co.; we protected and delivered nuclear weapons throughout NATO. It was a tough time to serve with Vietnam tension at its peak, Nixon’s impeachment proceedings, and the Baader-Meinhof terrorist group striking depots in Germany. Each morning I breathed in the golden dawn rising over the hillside and live the Hopi saying, “Take the breath of the new dawn and make it a part of you. It will give you strength.” Try it, and ground yourself in the strength of the universe.
