The Floor

We don’t seem to pay attention to the floor unless it is missing, unless it has a spill or an obstruction on it. Mostly we are confident that the floor is present and we merrily step upon it.

Many things become floor-like to us—certain steady relationships, certain habits, certain ongoing expectations. When we are floored by something, the unexpected has happened to us...

...M E D I T A T I O N

Each time we rise out of bed,
or out of a chair,
the floor is there to meet us.
We have a welcoming somewhere to put our feet.

Could we feel this to be spiritually true as well?
Could we more and more come to trust...
