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.

To be
“Life is not a having and a getting, but a being and a
becoming.”
Matthew
Arnold

Happy dog
Presses a cold nose in my back
And so the day begins
So much to do
As the week
Filled with bits and pieces of accomplishment and failure
Comes to a whimpering end
And yet, Frostian
I have long to go before I sleep
Tasks are lined up
waiting to be done
by a body unable and a mind unwilling to cooperate
and this morning
my soul feels more unraveled that refreshed
this is what happens
when all is striving
and little is being
perhaps a pause is in order
a moment
to walk happy dog
take a deep breath
sip my Americano
and start over
remembering
my essential nature
is to
be
