Haiku My Heart ~ Day Out Of Time
JULY 22, 2016
**Time out of time... slow**
**down for a day and listen**
**to your heart singing**
**down for a day and listen**
**to your heart singing**

According to the thirteen month Mayan calendar,
this coming Monday, July 25th, 2016
is the Day Out of Time to unplug, if you can,
and slow down and listen
to your own rhythms and the song of your heart...
It is the perfect day to walk a labyrinth
and reflect on what is most important...
To find a labyrinth near you can
go to the [Worldwide Labyrinth Locator](http://labyrinthlocator.com/)
or just take a walk
into nature and listen...

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!
