Confusion/Guidance
Have you ever watched how geese in the sky arrange themselves into the typical “V” of their migration, shifting from apparent confusion into an orderly flight pattern? We don’t understand the signals by which they help each other find their orientation, but they seem to encourage each other like we humans do. An account of how others found guidance can help us find it, too. In this message board you can read such accounts and can help others by writing your own.

My life is a labyrinth. The twists and turns I take are all part of the whole. This journey is not linear, from point A to point B , but is circuitous. I, while I am walking, do not see the whole of the labyrinth and so may feel as if I am unproductively walking in circles. But with the bird's eye view I see every twist and turn as part of the beautiful design.

The labyrinth was incredible. It was as if I had left my physical surroundings for another more tranquil one. Deep gratitude to those who created this exercise.

Thanks, Lord, for the time, and the ever-needed reminder that I am to erceive life from the higher elevation. Right now, I seem to be at that crossroad. I know that I will be led down the path that is meant for me to trod. This labyrinth may be the first part of that path. Thank you.

In the midst of heartbreak, the Light shines and Truth emerges, but a person needs to be looking for the Light to see it. Acknowledgement of the felt pain brings the first step to freedom, and then responsibility for the pain caused and received in the form of compassion towards oneself and the other. Finally, the process is completed in gratefulness to the teacher. The Light shines and all things are transformed by traveling the Shining Path, the road less taken. Thank you to my teacher.

I am confused just about everyday. I am unsure what I am supposed to be doing. I ask for signs but I guess I need to have faith especially in myself that what I am doing with my life is what God intended. I question if I am using my talents the way He wants. I just need to believe & do the best I can. Bright Blessings to all.

It is hard right now to just be where I am. I believe things happen for a reason, and dozens of people have used these words to me over the last few months. I am learning to trust that these rocky places, these scary heights, these sudden turns, these places where I've had to leave beloved things behind and cross narrow bridges over the abyss, are part of the path that is right for me and my family.

Thank you for the willingness to be the path for flow of such tangible positive energy. That presence buoyed me up with joy to be at this point of introspection and desire of spirit self. I clearly felt the size and texture of my fear diminish as I realized my capacity to tap into loving this energy to stay the course and move forward in this day. I pray I may trust in the crow's eye view symmetry of my journey, despite how I perceive it to be as I walk it. Thank you too for the oneness of our experience. Thank you for the encouragement to live today to the brim.
