Morning mist

“There is a place in the soul that neither time nor space nor no created thing can touch.” (German mystic Meister Eckhard)

“…what it means is that your identity is not equivalent to your biography and that there is a place in you where you have never been wounded, where there is still a sureness in you, where there’s a seamlessness in you, and where there is a confidence and tranquility in you. And I think the intention of prayer and spirituality and love is now and again to visit that inner kind of sanctuary.” John O’Donohue

Do you know that place?

Pulled between

I stand at the doorway,
feel the pull between
inside burrowed under blankets,
fire glow and candles,

and stepping out under stars

— Christine Valters Paintner, “A Door Opens”

What pulls you?
