Some things you will never see the same again.

One of the gifts of 2020, is the invitation to see clearly. With so much falling away, a transition hastened however quickly or slowly at times amidst a pandemic, the invitation to see what remains beckons.

I found myself in uncharted territory. Unfamiliar with the surroundings, I looked for a compass or a map. I wanted a “you are here” pin to orient me to this place.

There was no map, compass, or pin. To orient myself, I wrote a list “Things I Know Are True.” It is a start. I am finding the path.

When the world feels topsy turvy or the ground below me unstable, I am appreciating the people who leave clues or breadcrumbs to help others find their way on the path. Thank you, pathfinders.
