I heard something on EWTN today that I wanted to share. Has your life ever felt like it was unraveling, like a ball of yarn? Have you ever found that the strands of your life, the roles you play, have been strewn around the room in a jumble? Imagine Our Lady, sitting quietly in a corner, picking up the threads of your life and knitting (or weaving) them all together into a beautiful tapestry to give to God. Here is a
haiku I wrote based on this image.
in dappled sunlight
piecing together my life--
she weaves silently

This is a beautiful reminder about our Lady and what she does for us with the Lord. Well spoken!

Thanks, Charley.
I always try to find the "golden thread" that is weaving through my life. Sometimes I don't recognize it as gold at first -- but when the "trial" is over, I see the gold.
Btw, I liked the new picture!
Wow, Wendy. I'll have to try and look for that book now!
I agree, Lifeisgreat. There is always a golden thread there somewhere!
Thanks re: the picture. It was too hot in the other clothes! ;)
