    If woman is the light of God, I wonder what that makes man?

    Lovely, Val! Reminds me of the song I sang as a child. “This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine.” ❤

      It’s still warm over here Hariod. Perhaps a little sweater will suffice in the event of a cool breeze 💛

        Anyway, this quote has turned up twice on blogs today since you posted it: “The wound is the place where the light enters you.” It’s funny how things so often come up in sync about the blogosphere, don’t you think? What’s going on, I wonder? H ❤

          A realization of wounding, love and then opening to it all … perhaps (?) xo

    Your exchange with Hariod made me smile 🙂 The two first ones are among my favorite Rumi quotes, the last one was a pleasant surprise 😉

● About Me

My name is Val Boyko, a dual citizen living near Philadelphia, originally from Scotland.

This blog came to life one morning in 2013.  I woke up with these words in my mind:  “Life is a series of highs and lows. Be grateful for the highs. Be graceful in the lows. And find contentment in your Middle Ground.”

Find Your Middle Ground blog started to explore, reflect, ask deep questions, share insights about awakening, and connect with wonderful people like yourself. Thank you for being here and being such an inspiration.
