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.

Intimacy with the divine
Divine intimacy is always and precisely particular and made
to order--and thus "intimate."
Richard
Rohr
____________________________________________
does it feel odd
to use the term intimacy
when it comes to your connection with the Sacred?
intimacy prompts
all of the mystery and passion
surrounding human intimacy
nakedness, passion
desire, tenderness
even perhaps lust
that sense of becoming one
bound together
so tightly
that to separate
would tear
and terrorize
exactly!
Sacred approach
to each of us
is radically explicit
we are not talking ideology here
or rituals or rules
we are talking
love
a love that is beyond
all
understanding
