Ode to Life

Life- dearest Life

Thank you ever so much for helping me to accept what I cannot change and wisdom to know the difference and courage to change what I can. You completely dissolve my hold on beliefs that were menacing my trust in me and you knew all too well already that I cannot live with that heaviness weighing down my soul while it finds its way back to you.

I felt like the emperor who went to Jesus to have some potion to take back to heal his son. Jesus sent him back to his son without any miraculous evidence to make him scuttle all the way home. I can only imagine the immensity of this rich man’s agony and somehow his faith dissolving as each step he took brought him back to his son empty, sad, maybe even angry and some how his innate being at peace with a perplexed mind.
