The Journey Begins

Thanks for joining me!

Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. — Izaak Walton

The twisted, often foggy spiritual road starts when we least expect it. We are taught in church that the spiritual journey starts when we enter church life, either as parishioner, or clergy. But I say it starts later, when, and only when we are ready for it. Everything before this point, is education in accordance with our respective cultures.

In truth, the spiritual road begins when the soul first opens, when we say “Ahhh!” to the World for the first time, no matter at what age that occurs. For me, the spiritual journey began when I first saw a rainbow appear in the water droplets from a lawn sprinkler on a bright and sunny day when I was perhaps seven years old. I have never forgotten the event or the significance; the meaning attached to it, or the magic of that moment.
