Waiting Beyond the Bend

 



"You are a child of the Universe, no less than the trees and stars;
you have the right to be here.  And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the Universe is unfolding as it should."
Max Ehrmann

We experience moments of insight that awaken our body, mind, and soul.  In depth understanding shake us to our core.  And then, we go back asleep, as though nothing had happened at all.

Bolts of lightning strike our hearts, and we find our lovely selves wondering how we will ever be the same.  (But is that not the point ... to never truly be the same?)  Our bones rattle and we stumble forward, not certain of which way to go.

And so we begin to build again, resetting boundaries and perhaps allowing a calculated sense of flexibility.  We cannot see clearly what lies ahead, but in time our momentum increases, forging us ahead.  We become excited as to what waits beyond the bend.
