About The Author

Sequestered is the word we are hearing everyday now. The definition of sequestered in the dictionary is to put somebody in an isolated or lonely place away from other people, the pressures of everyday life, or possible disturbances. Ailill was sequestered 12 months before the pandemic and wrote In Gods Waiting Room. Now everyone is in Gods Waiting Room. Perhaps by accepting the radical uncertainty of life, we can live more fully, and more freely. Perhaps by accepting the radical uncertainty of life, we can find ourselves navigating this crisis with greater ease. May it be so, truly, nothing else will do? If our courage is not to fail us everyone will seek the awakening from within ourselves every morning and every evening.
