Lessons from the Labyrinth


The Full Moon 


Walking the labyrinth with the light of the full moon shining down on the path lighting my next step, I am amazed at the brightness even in the darkness.  Perhaps I need to remember this light next time I am in a dark spot on my life’s journey.  Knowing that if even in the darkness of winter,  the full moon will come and shed light on the next step I need to take.  As I bask in the light of  the full moon,  the tiny stars come out one by one, reminders that the light is always there.  Even as I wander amidst the pain and despair that life has delivered, light will always shine upon the path, and twinkle its message of hope.  So I look up at the moon and at the tiny stars that pop out one by one and feel the eternal message of hope that these lights bring to me night after night; messages of hope built into the fabric of creation.
