Epiphany (or showing or revelation)
At last! the little blank belly button of "no snow" that has settled over the weather map while everyone else in the British Isles has had a more or less White Christmas has moved and we have snow! And today is Epiphany which means showing. And it's funny how when everything is covered up, we show more of ourselves to strangers and dogs and children in the lovely snowy streets. So thank you snow for showing. It was worth the wait. But I really came on here to post my Epiphany offering.
Blessing of the Wise Ones
You may have to leave home to find home.
You may have to travel a long way
but if you attend
to the stars above
the earth beneath your feet
the birds in the boughs all about,
and trust the knowing of your dreams
you will be led to see
the kindness and kinship
of all that is made,
for all that is cruel,
and all that is strange,
and you will discover how
everything belongs
and find that you have
journeyed home
by another way.
