Seasons of Awakening
Published in Shambhala Sun (May 2012)
"In our yearnings for enlightenment, we might hope that it's a state of unfluctuating perfection that solves the problem of the constant change that roils our lives. But if we see what we're doing as awakening, something that unfolds over a lifetime, we understand that each of us is somewhere in the middle of a long walk through varied terrain. Then our task becomes to stay alive to the changes in that terrain, to trust the path as it appears before us, rather than try to impose our map on it."
