Sacred Journey or Fool's Errand


"The clash is born of the fact that the child within me
sees with undiluted clarity what the adult within me
is incessantly working to deny."
Craig D. Lounsbrough


 The sacred journey to wholeness at times appears to be the fool's errand.  Lessons are duplicated and choices are made through trial and error.  The straight path is lonely while the winding road can be overwhelming by thought, word or deed.

We distance our lovely selves from our childish ways, claiming memories to be foolish imaginations.  The more we repress our child's play, the greater divide between the maturation of body, mind, and soul.  It is a mistaken theory that suggests leaving our youth behind.

It is through our personal history that we begin to recognize with clarity denied truth.   The forgiveness blends the child back with the soul.  It becomes clear that beauty and strength blend all parts together while all that glitters isn't really gold.
