“How Lucky We Are To Be Alive!”

I love the below words of wisdom from writer-activist Lydia Wylie-Kellermann (hat tip to Richard Rohr and his daily CAC meditations). I’ll just let it speak for itself…

Dear friends,
ask the hard questions.
Give thanks for uncertainty.
Trust yourself.
Lean into the wisdom of community.
Don’t take yourself too seriously.
Know that the arc is long.
Lean on the ancestors.
Ask the creatures for advice.
Follow the wind.
Know that there is no right way.
Trust others on their path.
Find yours.
Embrace the mess.
Give your life to a
holy, undeniable “Yes!”
Whatever that yes may be.
And know, that this “had to happen.”
How lucky we are to be alive!
