The Sacred Life
 
There comes a time
when you want to run.
Run as far away as you can.
 
Run from your life.
Run from the task
that is so large
it cannot be done.
 
But your feet don’t move.
 
And slowly
life opens up
and help appears.
Not in the form you expect
but in secrets
and winding roads
and gateways into
the world you long for
but don’t know how to reach.
 
And the task
doesn’t get easier
but life gets more beautiful
with a richness
you couldn’t imagine
and a warmth
you had never felt
 
As you directly face
the immensity
of what you are
called to do.
 
     - Sherrie Lovler
