Everyday Sacred

My mom gave me a book a few months ago called Everyday Sacred. Reading time is such a premium these days, so this is a good book for me. It's all little entries, sort of a blog. It has been an interesting thing to carry around and read.

Sue Bender says:
"Stories move in circles. They don't move in straight lines. So it helps if you listen in circles. There are more stories inside stories and stories between stories, and finding your way through them is as easy and as hard as finding your way home. And part of the finding is the getting lost. and when you're lost, you start to look around and to listen."



I think this is also life. Life is circles and finding your way. I know that it is important to go with the flow of life, but sometimes, the getting lost is scary and hard. I wish it were easier. They say that anything worth having is hard and takes work, but why can't the things worth having be easy?

round without end....life would be so much easier if it had a defined beginning and end again.. :-)
