haiku my heart ~ La Calaca Love Pumpkin Heads
OCTOBER 19, 2012
Pumpkin Heads conspire,
what do they know that we don’t?
Dare you ask them now?
what do they know that we don’t?
Dare you ask them now?
Oh my...
Did they ever
have a thing or two to say to me...
Did they ever
have a thing or two to say to me...
How about you?

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!
