One of the gifts of blogging is finding other writers and thinkers who write or share writing that stops you because of the truth and beauty of words. This blogger, David Kanigan, reads my blog. I most likely will never meet him; but, because another very good friend and encourager, Ray Visotski convinced me I could write, I discovered the wisdom and beauty of words more so than before.
So, don’t stop here…read this blog today if you feel like you’re taking 10 steps back as opposed to only a few forward.
Happy Wednesday !
Morning Call
Today, if you’re confronting an issue for the ten thousandth time, or feeling that your life is going nowhere, or panicking over how little you’ve achieved, stop and breathe. You’re not falling behind on some linear race through time. You’re walking the labyrinth of life. Yes, you’re meant to move forward, but almost never in a straight line.
~ Martha Beck, from The Labyrinth of Life
