Blessings of Resilience to Us All!

Resilience

The wild beating heart

stands present and at

the ready

when life calls.

Showered in golden light

it illumines all.  And yet

if we travel the distance

there exists

an edge.

And at that edge, at that

exact place where

light meets dark, that is

the home of excitement.

Growth twines through our lives

in strength,

in mystery.  We finite humans,

we never know

cannot know,

when we open that door

to change, what

we will find.  But the

adventure of stepping forth

in wonder

begs the tantalizing

question we name

Beauty.

She calls to us once.

And again, until

tugging at my heart,

I jump.

And, once more

find that I

can

fly.

I posted this at the end of yesterday's blog as a coda to the series about Story.  I post it here again as a Equinox offering to remind us that the edge, the balance point between light and darkness, is the place that we find we can fly.

Equinox Blessings to us all!
