A Meditation

I’ve come to believe that sometimes the moment when you feel like you can’t hold on anymore is the place where you find out that your limits are beyond what you realized, your strength greater than you imagined. Life can seem numbing at times—a seemingly endless series of events: some easy, some difficult and most fairly commonplace. Then there are the days or weeks or months or years that are shards of glass, piercing our experience with greatness or with grieving. I’ve found that many times the place where our deepest questions spill out onto the pages of our life story is the place where the story becomes most touched with the glimmering possibility of growth.
