Tilokal Lake (“The Frozen Lake”)
In this high place
it is as simple as this,
leave everything you know behind.
Step toward the cold surface,
say the old prayer of rough love
and open both arms.
Those who come with empty hands
will stare into the lake astonished
there in the cold light
reflecting cold snow
the true shape of your own face.
David Whyte

About new desert
Nurturing the Gift of Seeking is about a spiritual "destination," a journey within, a new beginning, that eventually takes us where we are meant to arrive. Some call it Home, yet I am not sure what Home means, and where it is.
Enjoy the journey, dear Ones!
On this journey, what matters, first and foremost, is our seeking spirit. And the seed of perseverance--or faith, if you will.
Happy journey, dear fellow Sisters and Brothers!
