Lotus Grows in Muddy Water

And, oh boy, it is muddy around here today. Both inside and outside ... Mission murk is going to be how long a straw do I need to get clear up to the top of the water? Or do I need a straw so much as I need to know I am right where I am supposed to be right now? Faith, Acceptance, Surrender? I am not there exactly, yet!

There is a wonderful entry I saw last week about Transitions. I will find the link to it. The end of one time and the beginning of another are lonely events. We all come into the world one at a time, we all leave one at a time and transitions are a lot like that. Leaving behind the familiar for the new is tough stuff and holding on to left overs is understandable but delays the process of growth. So acceptance is, I guess, what I will need to work on a lot to be able to pole the ship of self away from those familiar (if not always so comfortable) shores.

Until then,
Peace
