Spirit tells me that we have been climbing
our mountain; our chosen way of life is as
a mountain.
But, what if I didn’t choose my way of life?
How would it be possible not to have chosen?
It may have chosen me.
How would that have been possible?
I was born into a particular family, within
a particular culture, in a particular
community, at a particular time, possessing
particular attributes.
And then what?
I became part of that family and culture.
And then?
And then I seemed to grow beyond …
Beyond what?
Beyond the comfort zone of them and myself.
And now?
I seem to be on the outside, looking in
to a place I can never return to.
Yes. Would you return if you could?
No. I seem to be where I am and moving
even further away from where I once
needed to be.
Is it a choosing?
No.
Then, what?
A calling, I guess.
Yes, but you choose to respond.
Yes.
Beyond the comfort zone
