New Age Spirituality – Morning Has Been All Night Coming ( Part 44 )

And each day, I know a little better, I feel a little stronger, and I understand with a deeper realization that I am growing into something more glorious, not just going into something more profitable.

I wished I could see Gideon again, soon. I was also hoping to see Marla again. How similar was her name to that of my late wife, Mardai. There is always a curiosity about our loved ones, to discover where they have gone or how they were progressing. A strange thought crossed my mind. Perhaps Marla knew where Mardai was. Perhaps they could communicate.

My contemplations were interrupted by the ringing of the phone. I went into the house and picked up the receiver, only to hear my old friend Gideon’s voice. “John,as I promised the last time I saw you, Marla and I will be meeting you soon for dinner.” Gideon sometimes got right to the point. No “hello” or “how are you?” No greeting. Just straight to the point.

“How are you, Gideon? And how is Marla?” I asked.

“We are, as always, fine, John,” he answered without giving me much time to reply.“I know you like bagpipes, country,classical and many other types of music. So, we’ll also make arrangements for some entertainment at dinner, too,” he continued.

“What are you talking about, Gideon?” I blurted out. “Dinner, John. You, Marla and I are scheduled for dinner next Wednesday evening at a unique place for a special treat. You’ll also get to enjoy some of your favorite music. I’ll pick you up at 7:00 P.M. sharp, John. Any problems?” “Only you,” I replied. “You’re so confusing.”

“I learned that from you, John, and I think sometimes it’s rather fun. See you soon.”

I hung up the phone. Finally, I’d see Marla again. The full impact of the words that Gideon had once repeated struck me. Yes, morning does take all night to come, but come it surely does.
