Sometimes life is feeling good, sometimes feeling not so good, and then there are these days that go up and down, back and forth one minute to the next. Like sitting in the middle of a teeter totter, I see the blessing and I see the human feeling. Excitement about a new adventure, fear about loss.
Each of the edges need each other. As the Tao says: what is a bad man but a good man’s work. I bless the world with my layoff. The employment agent is busy. The employment security office adds people to work. Benefits departments are moving more papers back and forth.
It is during the down turn of the seesaw that I lean more and more into Your arms. I remember to rest in the eternity of Your dear smile and soft touch. I close my eyes and Your fingers touch the center of my forehead, reminding me instantly of Heaven.
