Light at the end of the Tunnel
How much of the boulder is below the ground? How deep do the tree’s roots go? Is
the still river truly deep, or is it just quiet? As you go deeper and
deeper into the tunnel, does light decrease or does darkness increase? Nature has a way of asking some pretty interesting questions to say the least.
What can you learn from this? Quite a lot. I have at any rate. We know we cannot automatically know the amount of unseen boulder, or the depth of the tree’s roots, or the river. Of course in this day and age, we have all sorts of technology that will allow us to know these things. But if that technology did not exist how would we gage? Dig
until you found the bottom of the boulder, or the end of the roots…
swim and dive to the bottom of the river to gage its depth; risking the
current.
So, how will you know the unseen part of your friend’s heart? How will you know how deep your brother’s mind goes? How will you know the calmness of your sister’s mood? There is only one way. Dig until you come to the depth of your friend’s heart, and your brother’s mind. Swim, risking the current, to know the depth of your sister’s mood. We are the microcosm within the macrocosm. And even as we descend deeper and deeper into the tunnel of despair at times, we must know that there is yet another opening. And
this other opening will shed it’s light upon us, and we will enter into
it – a completely different place from whence we started.
