Meaningful
Meaning in everything.
Everything has meaning in this village.
The color of the sky, the glance of a neighbor, the murmuration of a flock, the sweet exhale after trial.
Weather coming, friendship, danger, peace.
❖
In other villages, on other mountains, are the days filled with the same meaning?
Do you send messages to us all, Lord, or just a few?
How did I become so fortunate?
– from the mountain
Consider:
Can I try ever harder to hear what you are saying to me, Lord?
