SUE KIMMEL’S PHILOSOPHY

Raindrops_022
“My life is a tapestry woven from many strands: things I have done, people I have known, and places I have been.  There’s a strand for each
of my dreams and aspirations since childhood.  Some have been dropped in the weaving but most have simply been woven into a new design.
It’s a tapestry woven of light and darkness, and even in the times of greatest darkness there were strands of light which shine more brightly in contrast to the surrounding darkness.
I carry this tapestry with me always.  Often I keep the past tightly rolled up –it’s easier to carry that way.  But I find myself now at a particular point where I want to unroll the tapestry and marvel at the patterns and designs that have been created.  At different stages, different colors and textures predominate.  Everything that has brought me to this point in my life is here.  All of it is who I am now.

If the past and the present are here, is not the future also?  Is the potential for all that I can be contained in this tapestry?  I want to move forward from this point conscious of the patterns in my life and the design I am creating with it.”


*A philosophy I subscribed to.  This isn’t one of my writings but it speaks strongly for me so I’m posting it here.  Sorry, I can’t recall which book I lifted it from.  :)
