Connection

The thread

This one precious life. 
How fragile it is.
Strung by a thread
into the vastness of eternity.
The oneness of all beings
on their own threaded life.

Who created the thread?
Who laid out the journey before I
came to be?
The vastness of potential
of choices made to make me
Me.
Who I am today
Whole, full of light and feeling grateful.

This thread we weave
and walk upon.
It has been tested with unavoidable change,
growth and setbacks
and lessons learned.
My one precious life.

I do not know what lies ahead.

At times, I feel this journey is mine alone
And even though with a future unknown,
I can be supported and held as I travel on
and begin another lap around the sun.
