“Growing apart doesn’t change the fact that for a long time we grew side by side; our roots will always be tangled. I’m glad for that.” – Ally Condietry

 

 

photoTo the strands that connect us all…

Many moons ago, I had the privilege of taking a teacher training class with Sharon Gannon and David Life. To begin, Sharon addressed the class and invited us to bow our heads in reverence to the Gurus we seldom acknowledge nor think to honor. She continued, we have much to learn from the gurus who may have provoked a deep rooted lesson or the clarity of a different direction; new found guidance in our lives. Albeit from; dis-ease, an angry or abusive parent, sibling, spouse, loss of a job, home, addiction and loss; any misfortune that may cause self-deprecation, but hopefully and eventually illicit an inner self- reflection, and an elevation of awareness. And gratitude.

This brings me to ponder that ole’ guru. Not the beautiful deity, a vision encrusted with jewels or gold laden. Rather a twinge of reality, when sometimes life brings disappointments that we’re not meant to take personally. When you know in your heart of hearts that you didn’t create it, you didn’t forge it, and you cannot fix it.

With Best Care,
