"The ultimate philosophy of striving for a global element of common purpose in an otherwise complex and fragmented world, is an awakening of the soul amid the mosaic of life. For me, life embraces a faith that influences every aspect of our lives. Like multi-colored threads woven in a vast tapestry – independent, yet part of the very weave that conceives it’s purpose. A thread of endless choices, opportunities and discoveries – of roads taken and ignored. The web of life is continually moving, changing shape, dimension, expanding and contracting – we experience of ourselves through a collective experience. At times we do not comprehend the full beauty and truth of the journey…preoccupied in private fears – consumed in our trepidation, and trapped by our worries. Unfamiliarity may seem frightening, and new paths a risk – but what is life, if not a journey into the wondrous unknown. Although temporarily hidden from our view, we are reminded that within each challenge there is always a higher offering. The only lock, keeping us trapped, blind or stuck, is fear. The only cage, our own minds. Like a painting not yet finished, or a poem awaiting its final line, true insight may seem at moments to delay itself in times of shadow. Sometimes we are left ruminating on the painful angst of complexities before the soothing brilliance of simplicity surfaces. Our understanding of life is based upon knowledge, faith, and experience. While perusing the contents, we
ruminate… life itself is for the most part a matter of perception, a reflection of our inner-selves. Like a mirror, the world we see reflects all that is within us – a looking glass into our own conceptions. Life is a part of us, an expression of ourselves…. We should all strive to see the possibility and the potential enveloping each other…" – Sandy
