haiku my heart ~ What Is

FEBRUARY 28, 2014

"What will be will be.
And what will be will be right."
Wise words, Rosemarie…

\*\*\*\*\*

One of my dearest friends
uttered these words when we were
but juniors in high school...
I can still hear her,
and see her saying them to me...
hand on her hip
and that tilt of her head...
I've never forgotten them.
These past two weeks
I've heard these wise words again and again.
Perhaps because there are a few situations
around me that I cannot change...
But I can change
how I view them...
Oh Rose...
thank you from the fullness of my heart
for these gems of wisdom...

\*\*\*\*\*

These are the rose petals
in the heart-space of my Santa Rosa Labyrinth
from my last Friday's haiku,
ever changing,
and oh so right...

\*\*\*\*\*

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

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.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

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!
