Navigating the Spiral


"Living means learning to hold the astonishingly
beautiful and unbearably hard things in the same palm."
Suleika Jaouad

Redefining the self can be exhausting.  We make choices to stimulate change, but frequently discover we have chosen out of old needs and desires.  We cannot create a true persona, if we do not know who we are at the core of our being.

Are we seeking expectations prompted by others or are we opening to what resonates throughout our being? Can we determine if our resources are dictating what we need or are we pursuing an inner nudge?

When we ride the spiral downwards, we enter the dark to learn what is hidden.  As we climb back up the spiral, we are stimulated by the light.  Both need to be navigated in order to establish balance with a deeper sense of living.
