Unless you were buried under a snow drift after our most recent winter weather event, you heard about certain people in high places (the president?) calling into question the ability of other people, also in high places (certain federal court judges?) to read and interpret something that, unlike this writer’s prose is, “so simple and so beautifully and perfectly written” that a “bad high school student would understand this.” Reflecting further, as only this POTUS can, he posited a belief that “courts seem to be so political and it would be so great for our system if they would be able to read a statement and do what’s right.”
These remarks resulted from problems the administration was having enforcing one of its showcase executive orders, involving who can enter the U.S. and, more importantly, who can’t. But I try not to get bogged down in looking too closely at something, when there may be a deeper meaning transcending the obvious. I realize from my many years in the practice that there may often be a hidden story, an unrevealed truth that often escapes us when we focus on the obvious. We are often told to search for the truth and seek true meaning to reach that higher understanding.
