Haiku My Heart ~ New Song
JULY 17, 2020
some unraveling
is needed now and again
to weave a new song
is needed now and again
to weave a new song
Sometimes…
I can’t tell if I’m unraveling
or weaving myself back together.
Here in Sonoma County,
COVID restrictions have tightened as our numbers once again sore…
I ache for those affected by this worldwide wake-up call.
If only we would wake up.
And weave a new song.
Together.

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!
