We twist and turn with the passage of time,
with change as inevitable as sunrise.The joys mount up, tragedies tear us down.
I want to believe there’s a reason for it all.
I hope something ties our lives together,
there’s a glue for all the frayed ends, a pattern that threads its way
through happenstance.
We are so busy in the living though
and I think we have to stop,be still, hush our minds, stop the world,
to glimpse the pattern invisible
until we look back.

I hope to see the pattern invisible too, Judy, all those twists and turns that seem so challenging, might have a beauty of sorts.
Yes, I do sometimes think we do need that reflective time to make some sense of the pattern...as we hope there is some.
I guess I have given up thinking there is a grander purpose to it all. To me it all just is with all its mystery and all the unknowns. Maybe there is a reason but I somehow doubt it would make sense to a human.
We have to stop our minds. So true but hard, hard, hard, when you are wired for our times.
