Beth Blog 1 0

It is Jan 2, 2022. The second day of a new year. Another “new” year but somehow it looks suspiciously like last year. The second day after two full years of Covid, political, social, economic, planetary, … well, shall we just say chaos? No, I think polarity bests chaos.

For one who cannot see to drive in the dark, the depth of darkness held my breath as strong as my hands held the steering wheel. My eyes trying desperately to scan the roadside for deer, elk, gazelles, bear, and yes, the road itself……

Nope, no one ever said the path came with GPS, exit signs, or even points of interest markers. Sometimes you can’t even see the trees for the forest. The reverse is likewise true. Maybe that is why so many wisdom teachings coax us back to…..

A short drive just to see the mesa and mountains. A gray horse enjoying the sunshine and grasses. As I took his picture I thought I had met him before. It was a road I had not traveled, so where, my friend did we…..

Some journeys are such that novels and movies are made to chronicle the triumph. Most people will never know our journeys nor the courage and heart required. The strength required is not diminished by those in novels or displayed on the cinema. Those making the invisible journeys…..
