Joy requires a Leap … (07/23/11)

“Truly living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. The moment we think we know, we do not.

And in all the moments we are waiting for that surety, we begin to die … So we guess – and we go.

We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap into the dark.” ~ inspired by Agnes de Mille
.
“You will do foolish things. Do them with enthusiasm.” ~ Colette

… and we cannot truly Walk in the Light unless we first leap into the pitch-black void of that which we fear …

again & again & again … & ever again, we do so — each time coming that much closer to holding hands with God.

It is only in having the courage to fly through the darkness — having Faith that our Love will guide us through — that we can rest in God’s hand.

What good is Faith when it is certain? What good is a Love given only in times comfortable?

Indeed, the wings of the Holy Spirit are ONLY unfurled in the times when we are lost and crying …

… completely torn asunder, and yet choose to reach out to Care anyway.
