Door #3,456,768

It's time for new doors again, new openings for actions, pathways to pursue. It always seems scary on the precipice and I am reminded of these two posts I've put down here before. Both have great poems, too!

April 23, 2005: You Will Go Through this Door

June 4, 2006: New Openings
It's a full moon and so I'll put the same poem here again. It is worth remembering...

Praise our choices, sisters, for each doorway
open to us was taken by squads of fighting
women who paid years of trouble and struggle,
who paid their wombs, their sleep, their lives
that we might walk through these gates upright.
Doorways are sacred to women for we
are the doorways of life and we must choose
what comes in and what goes out. Freedom
is our real abundance.
- Marge Piercy, The Moon is Always Female

You know, life is not like that 1970s game show where contestants got to choose what was behind Door Number 1, 2 or 3 and then go home, thank you very much, end of game. In life there are just more doors, one after the other. Sometimes I am tired. I think maybe I should pick a door and the show should end. Stefan reminded me the other night, "Just. Keep. Going."

Fine advice, that. Fortunately for me, all the options are good.
