One I&#8217;ve seen of late could be called, \u201cMe, Life and God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Or, if you like it with less religion, \u201cHumankind, Circumstances and Providence.\u201d (Just more syllables.)<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s my meaning:<\/p>\n<p>We, us humans, are the initiating agents. We take action. We apply energy. We don&#8217;t just have energy, we are energy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLife\u201d is what happens. It comes at us. Actually, \u201ccircumstances\u201d is the better word here. Circumstances change. Nothing is static. It rains, we change plans, but we go on.<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s two, Me and Circumstances. When everything&#8217;s working, I hardly notice. All seems natural. But when it isn&#8217;t, especially in big areas, like losing a job, or hopes dashed, or everything generally falling apart, that&#8217;s when I realize I need help.<\/p>\n<p>Until that moment I tend to function as if it&#8217;s <em>duality<\/em>, just me and life. But at the crisis moment, either large or small, it&#8217;s the third part of the equation that comes into play.<\/p>\n<p>Call it Providence, okay, but that seems a little abstract. Why not just go with \u201cGod\u201d? More personal.<\/p>\n<p>When I start seeking, I find he&#8217;s already there, and has been all along. Why didn&#8217;t I see it before? Is he so far in the background? Or, conversely, so much in the foreground? Are we like fish and don&#8217;t know we&#8217;re wet?<\/p>\n<p>But back to my trinity: I initiate, circumstances fluctuate, and God shows up at the moment of need.<\/p>\n<p>Always on time, never before.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a trinity, and one I&#8217;m glad to be part of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They&#8217;re everywhere, really, some visible, some not, some connecting us in most profound ways. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7087"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7087"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7087\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10703,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7087\/revisions\/10703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
