In healing,
we walk in circles,
returning to old ground
with a new way of seeing.
~Spellbones
where the mysteries reside, I pause…
inquiry for today~ can you see the light when you need it?
First, we have to find our heart,
a strange journey, since it’s wait-
ing inside for us.
Once fully opened, it can be
a garden for all that we love, a
place where we can tend those
who are broken and those we
have lost.
Once we accept what moves us
as our teacher, some deep part of
the heart becomes a threshold we
return to: from which we can live
both ways, within and without.
At last, the heart, which mirrors
all we want until we want no more,
becomes a home we look out from,
as we sit, content as a Pueblo in
his dwelling on the cliff.~Mark Nepo
