How to Walk in a Messy World

How to Walk in a Messy World

Illness. Fear. Bombs. Wounds.  

Each life has a cross to bear. 

And, dead bulbs raise tulips!

Storms. Drear. Anxious thought.

We journey in empathy, 

and, dread resurrects hope!

Why does one live and

this one die?  Life makes no sense.

“Why” isn’t important.

Love is. How do I

love?  Receive love? Divine Love

always flows. Accept!

Walk with open heart.

Walk with compassion. Be a

non-anxious presence.

Walk in the woods with

fear; imagine bear, snake, wolf!

Without, see violets.  

Life is anger. Life

is joy.  Welcome both, but do

no harm.  Love revives!                       

“God” is signpost,

pointing to eternal Mystery.

LOVE resurrects all!
