"I will probably be a searcher until I die and hopefully death itself
will only be another adventure. To live any other way seems impossible.
If anything has changed over the years, and it has, I only feel more
confident now about what I wrote then. I am far more aware of the power
that guides each of us along the way, and provides us with the insights
and people we need for our journey. There are, indeed, men and women too
gentle to live among wolves and only when joined with
them will life offer the searcher, step by step, all that is good and
beautiful. Life becomes not a confused struggle or pointless pain, but
an evolving mosaic masterpiece of the person we were destined to
become."
UNAFRAID TO BE FREE
"Finally unafraid to be free,
Ready to surrender all the illusions of
recognition and external securities,
Living off the sky and earth like soaring
eagles and braying burros,
Trusting in a Power even beyond Dow Jones
and hoarded retirement.
Finally ready to live like the noble animal that I am-
Without masters or servants, with dignity dependent on no one,
Content to know that I am God's child, and
only good has been prepared for me.
When I am not afraid to release all that my life
and culture taught me to prize.
To abandon fears once and for all, to discard the
anxieties of a lifetime like a suit that no longer fits,
To be afraid of no one, beholden to no one,
dependent on no one
Save the few who know and love me as I am,
and the God Who alone gives meaning and joy
to the madness of my life."
