Bridge From Rough Ridge 10/02/2018 — Blue Ridge Parkway, Blowing Rock, North Carolina
We are always coming from, going to, somewhere. What bridges the gap for us, here, now? Where have we been? Where are we going? We are transitioning from where to where?

I'm waiting in the silence between realizations, watching for what arises, emerges, appears to point the way. The future is unfolding according to its own good pleasure. Pushing and shoving only muddies the water and conceals the way. Waiting is the bridge for many of us these days. Time will tell. For now,there is recovery and restoration, and meeting the day as the day needs to be met.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
