Compass Within




He used to say we all had a compass inside of us and what we needed to do was to find it and to follow it.

Ann Patchett
STATE OF WONDER



We all have a compass whether we name it soul or heart or Divine.  This source constantly urges us to stay the course, but some times the winds are so mighty against our sails,  we sail off course in directions we weren't necessarily meant to go. 

Storms can detain us in darkness where we aimlessly venture from one shore to another.  When the winds have calmed and our vessel has regained balance, we begin to hear the whispers of guidance once again.  With the sun on our faces, we grow more certain of the way we must travel and we set out  on our journey more determined than before.

After time, we allow the gentle breeze to lull our vessel in perfect cadence with our beating heart.  With peace and calm, we gently float in the reflection of the cascading moon.
