We humans crave structure and the beneficial, supportive container it provides. When it comes to navigating life, then, we are inclined to look for the recipe, the formula, the trustworthy and reliable way we can follow that will carry us along and through it all. But life is inherently wild and unpredictable, so trying to meet and journey through it via a set recipe or formula is a path that will inherently and necessarily fall short. There’s a beauty in that falling short. It seems as though our ideas about these paths carrying us through life are replaced by the actuality of them carrying us more deeply into life again and again, further and further into the midst of its wild and unpredictable ways, with an increasingly greater capacity for being right there, right here. Along with this comes the freedom of no particular way to go, fully, and no particular way to be, fully – the possibilities of meeting and engaging with life unfold, open and endless, calling to us, calling for us. And we respond, capably and fully.
