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.

_______________________________________
so cautiously we walk through life
peering over our shoulders
at our littered pasts
regretful for too many things
peering ahead into
the vague future
anxious and worried about many things
and so we creep
like people
with spiritual PTSD
unable to fully enter into life
or love
struggling with our deficits
and too afraid
to be generous
to wounded to forgive
ah, but Sacred Presence (the Spirit)
abounds
it is ours to partake
don’t just dip!
Don’t just sample Sacred with
a cup
a jar
a pitcher
dive in!
it’s a roaring spring
but wow!
What a ride
