"Life is lived forward, but understood backward. It is not until we are down the road and we stand on the mountain looking back through the valley that we can appreciate the terrain God has allowed us to scale.” Jill Savage

Just wondering what this means exactly. I kinda like it, but I'm not exactly sure what it means.

Dance With the Other

As a mother and the baby she holds in her arms, as a father and child, as two in courtship or in marriage, so we are with Him.

One chases, the other runs away. One runs away, the other chases. One initiates, the other responds. The other initiates, the one responds.

It is a dance, a game, a duet that plays as surely as the pulse of life.

Until one falls away and becomes estranged.

Then the other looks and says, "This is not an other. We are one and the same."

And so, they return to each other's arms once again.It is a great mystery, but in estrangement, there is found the deepest bond.


Had to accpet reality today for myself and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done.
