Oh this past year has hurt! Betrayed by one I loved-- in every way possible. Loss and sickness. Mourning ones alive and dead I can no longer hold. Discoveries that threatened to cripple me. Loneliness so acute it made me writhe. Coming face to face with my own character defects. And...on every page of this particular tragedy I find a nugget of grace. Experience leads me to open my eyes to the gift behind the pain. Once my sister,Brit, told me NOT to run from the hurting. One must walk through it to get to the other side. Wise little sister. I thank her for telling me this. While walking through I recognized the beauty in little things-a moment of ease, a kind word, an offering of a hand. Little things, when nourished, can become staffs to lean on as we walk through the shadows. I will not be buried by that which is not worthy of my respect. Aho. Amen. Aho.
