Life can seem good, on the surface, to the onlooker, to the self.
A busy, comfortable life filled with family, friends, work, recreation.
And yet
And yet…..
Slowly, time seems short – life’s demands fill every ounce of space. Too much to do – but little happiness or peace.
A life event may occur, a loss, an illness, a challenge which is hard to manage.
What does it mean for faith and philosophies when everything becomes irrelevant or no longer makes any sense?
If ever your faith is shaken ..
Everything you thought you believed becomes less certain – the rug has been pulled out from under you, what is left?
It might feel difficult, there may be sadness, fear, maybe you feel lost.
This can be a time of awakening, a time to let go of what has not worked – or what has been wrenched for your hands. Here and now to find in amongst all the uncertainly and difficulty, serenity emerges – it feels like love.
