Learning to appreciate the whole tapestry

Pictured below are one seeker’s thoughtful notes on the path of life, and the threads of our lives.

They’re a little allegorical reflection that goes straight to my heart this week.

You may have to click on the photo’s journal page to read them more clearly.

I thank my fellow traveler for this important – and life-affirming – reminder.

Wishing each and all a very good final week in this flash-frame-fast first month of a barreling-forward year.

I read recently that life will automatically supply the pain and other elements that spur growth, and that it is up to us to find, receive, and create the joy.

I think it is also up to us to adopt the pace that allows, in balanced cycles, for reflection and evaluation along with movement and expansion.
