**Here comes the sun**
**Here comes the sun, and I say**
**It's all right**
**Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter**
**Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here**
**Here comes the sun**
**Here comes the sun, and I say**
**It's all right**
**Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces**
**Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here**
**Here comes the sun**
**Here comes the sun, and I say**
**It's all right**
**Sun, sun, sun, here it comes**
**Sun, sun, sun, here it comes**
**Sun, sun, sun, here it comes**
**Sun, sun, sun, here it comes**
**Sun, sun,...**
**-The Beatles 1969**

I can remember the first time I heard this song...
sitting high above the high school football field
on the steps of the Healdsburg Cemetary as a teenager.
Something clicked inside of me that day
and that moment is forever in my memory,
as was the viewing of these life-size pieces
of amazing paper maché figures
and meeting their creator,
San MIquel de Allende artist Adolfo Falcón Garza
in October of 2012.
\*\*\*\*\*
May this return of the sun
touch our hearts
and open to this new light birthing within us all.

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!
