Every Step is Holy
By Danna Faulds
The journey from the known
to unknown, from the
unreal to the real, is rarely
revealed in advance.
The potholes, detours,
false starts, and quick retreats
are each honorable,
and even needed in the bigger
scheme, in the forest that can’t
be seen between the trees.
It took years for me to realize
that the very twists and turns
and shadows I labeled “problems”
were really sacred ground
grace disguised as obstacles,
the whole pass a pilgrimage,
mysteries baring themselves
before me all along the way.
Grace disguised as obstacles as we step together through our lives of potholes and detours… walking each other home.
Being there for our selves and others on this journey is the ultimate in grace.

I’ve spent the last two and a half weeks in grace, with family, walking a family member home. It was an honor to be part of that walk.

People that face the same external situation
One thinks the world is against them
Another sees the big picture
We all have challenges, accept and live in the moment
Perception is our reality
I lived the world is against me from childhood abuse
It was not a life sentence but the freedom from accepting has little suffering

Fabulous. The journey is the gift but it may not feel like it at the time your feet are blistered. It is easier to see this as I age. Thank you Val.
