I live my life in widening circles
that reach out across the world.
I may not complete this last one
but I give myself to it.
I circle around God, around the primordial tower.
I’ve been circling for thousands of years
and I still don’t know.
Am I a falcon, a storm, or a great song?
~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~
(Rilke’s Book of Hours: Love Poems to God, translated by Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy)

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!
