by nadine j. smet-weiss spiritual director sitting here with my breath i am reminded of the heart at the heart of each being infinitesimal spark of light hidden in each and every form unfolding through the eons becoming unending appears to falter mystery moves  spark ignites anew life

i depend upon you to remind me who i am at heart and to hold me accountable for my actions accountable for my words from a place in your heart that recognizes community calls us to truth in love

i pause to receive life as it is awe full breath beauty one

deluged

by the demands

of the day

flooding forth

fracturing and

fragmenting
