Chaos...
JANUARY 20, 2007
and Beauty...
The chaos in our basement
finally is out of control,
especially in our inner storage room...
So, everything, OUT!
into the main space,
which is already full...
As I go through old baskets,
I find two treasures...
All my ribbons from my 4-H days,
The chaos in our basement
finally is out of control,
especially in our inner storage room...
So, everything, OUT!
into the main space,
which is already full...
As I go through old baskets,
I find two treasures...
All my ribbons from my 4-H days,
The only one marked with details,
out of all the ribbons...
is for first place at the Healdsburg County Fair
of a batik I made in Junior High,
or Middle School,
as it is now called...

and the batik still hangs in our downstairs!
A little faded, but still with me!
A little faded, but still with me!
The real find though...
Was the necklace I purchased for my Senior High School Prom.
I thought it was lost and gone...

I just love that this sweet heart is still in my life!

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
