FORWARD in FAITH

Pastor Tim BauerHillsboro United Parish UCC/UMC

“Amor fati” is a Latin phrase which means “a love of fate.” It is one of the cornerstones of Stoic philosophy. I believe this outlook upon the things in life we cannot control nor change has a strong connection to ancient religious perspectives, including Christianity. One example would be Jesus’ struggle with impending crucifixion as he says, “if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will but yours be done.” (Luke 22.42 ESV)

It is recorded that as Thomas Edison watched his factory burn in December 1914, he told his 24-year-old son, “Go get your mother and all her friends. They will never see a fire like this again.” When his son objected, Edison said, “It is all right. We have just got rid of a lot of rubbish.” The New York Times quoted Mr. Edison saying later, still watching the blaze, “Although I am over 67 years old, I will start all over again tomorrow.”

I sense there are strong feelings of being uncomfortable with our current situation. Our instinct is to regain control. We desire “normalcy.” Yet in the midst of this the questions arise, “How can we control what we did not cause? How do we control a microscopic virus? How can we undo what has already occurred?” Embracing what is does not mean resignation. It is not throwing up our hands, placing our heads in the sand or waiting for the end to come as passive bystanders. Nor is it storming headfirst into the world promoting our own needs and our own agenda.

Accepting what is currently occurring for myself includes using a face mask, carrying and using hand sanitizer, cleaning surfaces with bleach solutions or wipes, maintaining safe distances and limiting my time in retail stores. I have strayed away from this routine a number of times. These were not times of strong-willed defiance but returning to established habitual practices. These occasions not only caused negative self-talk – “Tim, how could you have been so irresponsible? Your actions can harm others without your knowledge,” – but also brought a salvo of ire from my wife. It took some time, but I found myself accepting my actions and moving on with increased attention to my actions. I could have (and almost did) slip into blaming, shaming and deflecting. However, I embraced my actions with self-awareness, remorse and reflection. I am responsible for my response to what I cannot change. It is not my will, but my response to the well-being of others that should direct my actions in all situations. Or to paraphrase Edison, “Although I am almost 66 years old, I will learn new ways of living in the midst of the pandemic.”

I am not a fan of disruption and change. I prefer to live and act out of established routines that have served me well for decades. Yet the broad spectrum of life does not revolve around my routines and comforts. God gave me the ability to adapt, innovate and continue into a new day. Who am I to stifle what God has graciously provided?

By COLE SHORTThe Hillsboro Fitness Center

will reopen Monday after being closed for more than two months due to the threat of COVID-19, school officials said Tuesday.

Hillsboro Public Schools Su-perintendent Paula Suda said the easing of restrictions outlined in Gov. Doug Burgum’s “ND Smart Restart” protocols made school officials more comfort-able reopening the district-run athletic facility.

“State Superintendent (Kirst-en) Baesler and the governor wanted to leave the decision to open up to school districts,” Suda said Tuesday.

“As long as we can abide by the state’s rules and not have any heavy breakouts we can open.”

A number of restrictions and changes will be introduced at the fitness center Monday.

Previously open to clients around the clock, the facility’s front entrance will be open from

5 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily for mem-bers. Masks will be encouraged but not required.

Members won’t have to sign their names once inside and memberships suspended during the closure will be extended an identical number of days at no cost, Suda said.

“We’re not going to rip any-one off. Our goal is to make sure everyone is safe,” she said.

People who remain uncom-fortable returning to the fitness center will have their member-ships put on hold until they’re ready to come back, she said.

Staff hired by the school district will clean the fitness center three times per day but members will be asked to use sanitary wipes to clean off their equipment before and after their workouts.

Anyone who feels sick or ex-hibits symptoms commonly as-sociated with COVID-19 will be asked to avoid entering the facil-

ity, Suda said.Elliptical machines have

been spaced out and clients will be asked to keep an empty tread-mill between runners if one is available, she said.

Fitness manager Kim Sa-lander has taped off four 12-by-12-foot areas for dumbbell and kettlebell users to limit contact between clients.

Morning fitness classes will not be allowed initially and signs will be placed around the facil-ity advising people that they are using fitness center equipment at their own risk, Suda said.

“We’re excited to be open-ing back up for those people who need it,” she said. “And for those people who aren’t ready we totally understand.

“We’re going to do our best to follow (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guide-lines so hopefully we can stay open and get back to more nor-malcy.”
