Mystery of Life
I wrote this piece for a dear friend who was going through a difficult battle. We all go through seasons in our lives, where the mind and heart can feel “cloudy” and emotions, such as despair, anxiety, sadness, anger etc., can rage in our bodies. I hope that this piece will inspire you or speak to you in some meaningful way. I’m grateful to be on this mysterious journey with you!
Life is a great mystery and sometimes the path isn’t clear,
Guiding you through strange lands and stormy waters…
Through waves of bliss and sadness, hope and fear
Yet always, at the depths of your being, can be felt a spacious calm…
A knowing that all is well
Hidden in every laugh and smile, in every challenge and each shed tear
A secret message is gently whispering to you
Softly reminding you who you are and what you’re made of.
Every experience strengthens and points you back to what’s real
Although the storm of life can be tough,
The future uncertain and the journey long
Each moment is calling you a little further home,
Pointing you back to the radiant light
At the center of your beating heart.
