Gateways on the Long Walk Through Life.........

A gate, with no path to or from. When was it last opened? Like Frost's poem about building walls, it's worth asking who the gate is to keep out, or let in.

I see this gate as an invitation to what lies beyond, an opportunity for newness, a way of access to who knows where, a gate of possibility. It has hinges and a handle, it's meant to be opened, then closed - only to be closed once we have passed through.

Not unlike some of the decisions we make, which are also invitations to what lies beyond, opportunities for newness, ways of access to who knows where, gateways of possibility.
