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.

live in the question
“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your
heart.
...live in the question.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
________________________________________________________
I have so many questions
The longer I live
The more I have
It seems as for every answer
There are 5 questions
Waiting to ambush me
And so I walk each day
With so much unresolved
Living the questions
Know that perhaps there is no answer
to be found in this world
in this moment
only in the depth of eternity
and maybe not then
perhaps then it won’t matter anymore
as I will find resolution
an return to the One from which I came
Why do children get sick
Whey do parents brutalize their children, mental, and
physically
Why are we so selfish?
Why do wicked people seem to prosper?
Why do we so easily believe liars?
Where am I going?
Has my life been worth anything?
Why am I so often lonely?
Why do I do so many stupid things?
How do we create change?
How do we defeat evil?
The things that torment me, and go unresolved
Yet I will hold them patiently
And I will let them go
For they are of no earthly good
Of no heavenly good either
I will live in the question...
And keep walking
Keep searching
Keep trying
Keep loving (as best I can)
peace
