As did other people.
The National Museum of Iraq was effectively destroyed by looters.
I feel weird. I felt weird. There's nothing, nowhere to be done. I don't feel weird anymore, quite in the same way. And this was one of the bits that make a body feel better, I guess, the stuff that comes in around the edges of taking up the burden and release of a faith, a set of practices with their own feel and their own reason.
Now I don't feel weird. I feel . . . sort of detached, dissociated, but in a comfortable sort of way, a place from which I can look at things from a distance. Not Darkhawk's distance; this is Lightweaver's distance, the looking for harmonies and balances and how the pieces go together.
One of the things I'm finding I needed in a theology was a way of affirming places that things go. Where they belong. ( This sort of thing will probably wind up on a religion filter when I get that organised. This is a blow-by-blow on my first performance of what's called the Daily Rite. )
