Spirit
understands adversity as opportunity.
I
remember that “God” is the shorthand for “good, orderly direction”.
Elders
walk before us. The young follow
behind. Ours is a caravan of
consciousness.
When
outward events jostle me with their velocity and turbulence, I must actively
turn within, seeking higher perceptions.
We are like jewelers. At the start of any day, we have before us
the beautiful beads of differing choices.
Choice by choice, moment by moment, I build the necklace of my day, stringing
together the choices that form artful living… Moving through my days with
conscious grace, I connect to the web of life.
I, too, am a bead in a larger pattern.
I resolve
with a loving heart to accept appropriate endings. I do not grasp at straws when the reality is
difficult but clear. Instead, I release
the past, bless it and turn with resolution to the future. I listen to the dictates of my conscience,
knowing that its voice calls me home.
Problems
bear the seeds of their solutions.
Sometimes
we are less a person than a place for those we love.
