I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

The Homeless Soul
“My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I
intend to end up there.”
― Rumi

Oh Lord
a lot of times we feel homeless
homesick
we are not settled
we do not feel at home in our own bodies
we do not feel at ease with ourselves
we do not feel
as if our souls are at home
we are lost
so many things
have twisted and blurred
our true self
words of hatred and rejection
mistakes made
things craved
life
and so we are lost
in the wilderness
and we blunder urgently
futilely
through the thick darkess
remind us Lord
that we are never truly lost
you are in us
the Sacred Seed
the Sacred Breath
our souls
are at home in You
