lighting your way-
I prepare for the New Year and a continuation of observing one small moment a day. In January of this year I began the observations and the writing of small stones. The last two days my preparations have included returning to read my very first stones. (In this recalling I see once again why I join with Fiona Robyn in her lovely endeavor to encourage us all to pay attention. Check out the lovely online writing community Writing Our Way Home.)
I am choosing to re-post this stone as a way of circling back to a moment when I paused just long enough realize where balance is found.

Lighting Your Way by Teri H Hoover

Moving aside impossibilities
the path has became wide.
And for a brief moment, a bit of light.
I
am walking along my path, set with a direction for my energy. A lovely
path of connection, allowing my heart a safe place to be. Unwanted
ambivalence steps onto the path. The sources are too many to name. My
heart retracts, my breath restricted- there is an ominous darkness
ahead. I am learning to turn to God, who takes my hand and
carries my fear - so I can breathe. He laughs and says, be here with me, I
will light your way.
