At the crossroads of Now

"If only we could see and trust that all our ways of getting there, all our courses over time -- our good deeds, our evil deeds, our regrets, our compulsive choosings and the fallout from those choosings, our things left undone and paths never actualized -- are quietly held in an exquisite fullness that simply poises in itself, then pours itself out in a single glance of the heart. 

If we could only glimpse that, even for an instant, then perhaps we would be able to sense the immensity of the love that seeks to meet us at the crossroads of the Now, when we yield ourselves entirely into it."

--Cynthia Bourgeault, Mystical Hope

Ah, Joyce -- you know I thought of you when creating these last two pieces. Thank you -- always -- for teaching me the joy of jewel tones!

Exquisite quote! (I need to get this book!) And your art piece here, for me, expresses the seeing through, the glimpsing through the veil to that Love that meets us... Lovely...
