Life - A Labyrinth


The footfalls on the path are taken with care and deliberation
Slowly unfolding, only showing those few important steps ahead

Each turn is purposeful, taken in time and with the knowledge that this is the right way
Each switch-back is a return to things dear enough to hold close by always

And in the middle, seeing out with gratitude at the path taken so far
With a vision of the journey to now, and how and why this was the path

Stepping along again with confidence that the rest is ready to unfold
Returning to the beginning


Dedicated to Catharine Fee, SSJ. Sister Cass died today, March 2, 2007.

What a suitable tribute to Sister Cass! As Chestnut Hill College's Registrar and, later, as Associate Dean for Academic Advising, she guided hundreds of students in their steps through college. She advised, guided, cajoled and encouraged so many Chestnut Hill graduates.
