Today I had an encounter with Life
Expressing as a weaver from Amsterdam via Tuscany
A vessel full of joy and love and laughter
Fearless in her story telling
An open honest presence

We had gifts for each other
Though no need for distracting ribbons and wrappings

For me the awareness that out of silence
Can come the voice of the True Self

For her the invitation
To stay with the emptiness

A conversation between soul friends
Weaving the threads of relationship
Into ourselves and each other

As the True Self makes itself known
I find myself weaving more and more of these ‘anam cara’
Into the fabric of my life…
