Lessons from the Labyrinth - Finding Center

Have you ever walked a labyrinth? It's quite an experience. One of the fascinating aspects is that you really don't know where you are on your path. You know you're headed to the center, but the path twists and winds and runs from end to end in such a way that you never know how close you are.

One minute you are standing right next to the center, you can reach out and touch it, then the path takes you to the farthest border and once again you have no idea how to reach it.

Then you are as far as you can be from the center, you turn a corner and WOW - it's right there! You can see it, and the path is just a tiny bit of straight path to reach it.

So it goes with our goals and dreams. Oftentimes we can't see where we are on the path. We don't know exactly when or how we will reach the center (our goal, dream). We just have to trust that if we keep choosing to do things that move us closer to our goal, we will get there.
