Today on the Buech, it's time to remember your trusting vantage.

In retrospect, you see clearly what the journey of life is.

As if you are looking back through a clear glass.

In retrospect, you will understand that your entire life was but choices made one after

another in the name of love or preserving that love.

Nothing will be wrong or broken.

Your choices made either way in the name of your heart.

Perched above your experience, you will one day see.

Each of your days woven together as a tapestry of missteps, hurtful choices, probing joy,

heartbreak and redemption, love and the denial of that same love.

You will see it all as gathered choices and through those choices, a melody will be woven,

both sweet and achingly bitter sweet.

Each time you choose something as you will, it causes your heart to break and longing

in seeming disrepair.

Each time you make a choice you think brought you farther from the love you long for.

Think again, dear one.

For each step, each movement and action will come together to create the beautiful paradox

that is life.

We compound our suffering by looking too closely at the thing that is causing us pain.

We forget that soon a revelation will come from this very place.

That these painful spots and choices are often where growth comes to break us open into

something larger, something more loving, more purposeful in being and body.
