Today the path I am on is foggy and it’s hard to see where
I’m going or whether there is a purpose to this twisted journey. It can be so easy to become discouraged and
tempting to turn back. However, I want
to remember the many times in the past I have experienced similar days and with
time, trust, forgiveness and patience I found myself exactly where I needed to
be.
In so many ways life is the great 'recycler'. Nothing has been wasted. Situations I think are useless and need to be
thrown out, end up serving important purposes for me. Often I want to hurry up and forget people
who have hurt or let me down, but upon reflection I realize they are the
ones that have taught me the greatest lessons about loving. The moments I have felt disappointed and
believed myself a big failure, later on I find have offered the opportunity I
needed to discover who I really am. Time
and experience seem to transform what I think of as the waste of my life into the
precious stuff of me. So, today as I sit
on the compost pile thinking I’m a mess, who knows the magic that’s emerging.
