Wholeness teaches us how to hold the paradox of everything all at once

I love the work of self-discovery and integration - the work of diving deep to reveal the buried treasure.

I love that it’s not about finding a perfect, static state, but about going on a journey with no itinerary. It’s the territory of the Great Unknown, the Great Mystery.

It can be messy and uncomfortable, and at the same time sweet and rapturous. This is the richness of life.

This is how we get to reclaim the lost and hidden parts of ourselves and sing them home. This is how we become whole again.

I love the layers. Layers upon layers, as we traverse the spirals of our inner realms…going from ‘room’ to ‘room’ and discovering the crumbs in the corner. Curiouser and curiouser!

Sometimes we think our work is done once we’ve swept up the crumbs, but then we discover another door to another room we didn’t know about…and we get to meet another layer of ourselves, another aspect, another dimension.

But there is no completion, only wholeness - which includes all the beginnings and all the endings, as well as everything in between and beyond.

Sometimes maps are helpful and sometimes they need to be burned.

Sometimes we need courage and other times, the courage to surrender.

I also love that we’re in this together, all of us on our journeys of becoming.

What do you love about the journey home?
