purpose
for Libby, Roxanne, and Therissa
who found family two years ago today much love to all! Suddenly, things snap into focus.
I’ve been pursuing unity all my life, But could only glimpse the monstrous vision in fragments;
It has haunted me for years.
Each time I sighted it, I struggled to make it concrete.
At first, it seemed I only had a sculptor’s yard of
unfinished figures—
Then it slowly began to make sense,
Gathered from glimpses and inferences. More and more, this mysterious life comes together.
It may take years more to reveal the whole.
That’s all right. I’m prepared to go the distance. One’s life’s destiny is not easily revealed. It’s too big. You may certainly set your sights early, but you will still have to make changes and adjustments as your true purpose is clarified. When it does begin to come together, there is a tremendous feeling of assurance. Then with each step upon the path of Tao, your certainty rings from peak to peak. purpose 365 Tao daily meditations Deng Ming-Dao (author) ISBN 0-06-250223-9 Guan Mountain Snowing 1950 by Fu Bao Shi **Suggested reading of daoist texts ancient poetry and contemporary Chinese literature is available at the site. receive a full HTML copy of the daily meditation sent directly to your inbox, please send a note with the words "subscribe tao" in the subject line to duckdaotsu to unsubscribe or take a vacation, contact me with specifics at the same address! |
