Stone Sanctuary, Chapter 11: The Red Egg Rises

 

 

Completion: The Red Egg Rises

 

When the heart attack had me nine years ago, I had no idea of the long journey that was about to unfold.

There is no absolutely way I would have chosen to have go through this ordeal, yet from it emerged a much deeper connection with life and spirit that is beyond words, a sanctuary of stones.

As I was completing the red stone egg– and the first snow was falling– I found myself deeply grateful for this involuntary journey, for those I have met along the way, and for the enduring love and devotion of my wife.

As with Psyche and the seeds, this was a good time to sit down and cry.
