Romancing the Unknown

Setting out on the Fool's journey

I’m making a home in the unknown.

There are no pre-paved roads in this town,
no street names to guide the way.

To find your path, you’ll need inner direction.

You never know who you might meet
or what surprises lie ahead.

Adaptability is key.
Faith, a requirement.
The beneficence of your own mind, a must—
a mind conjoined with Love.

I’ve managed to build a home here,
to settle into the unsettled.

Sometimes, I forget the past,
lose myself in possibility and adventure.

Other times, I remember—
and fear keeps me inside.

What might be out there?

Then I remember Love,
dress the wounds of the past with it,
and get back to romancing the unknown.

From my heart to yours…
