Is it the end of the road?
There are times when it certainly feels like the end and all hope is
gone. I can see no way out and
catastrophe is looming in the air. I’m
at a dead stop wondering what now. Then,
out of seemingly nowhere, I notice the next best step and then the next and
next.. Before long I look back and see
that the road has taken a turn, I look ahead and see a new stretch of road
before me. I am enlivened again with
optimism and confidence.
I have learned to not trust what I feel is ‘the end’ but
rather to wait with hope for the next best step, surrendering my agenda,
breathing, opening my heart to whatever will come. Believing there is a purpose to road I am on
brings me comfort, a hint of promise and possibility, an ability to remain in
the question, and a sense of peace.
Today, I will be reminded that each of us walks our own journey. Where?
I don’t know but I trust the road will continue…
