Day 11 - following "My Personal Call to Greatness!"

Day 11 – following “My Personal Call to Greatness!”

Driving early this morning to get a PET and CT scan I kept wonering about
“The Gift, disguised.” During breakfast after the scan I wrote this:

The Gift Disguised

Disguised as a biopsy, PET/CT scan,
echogram, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation
lies an unknown gift disguised as breast cancer.

I am opening to the gift, wondering

How will I recognize the unseen gift?

Will it suddenly surprise me with delight?
Or slowly reveal its beauty to me over the next few months?

How will I recognize the unseen gift?

Will it gleam like a crystal
bringing light and clarity into my life?
Or slowly reveal its depth of beauty in the light of those I love?

How will I recognize this unseen gift?

Will it shower me with the joy of deep connection and compassion?
Or slowly pull back the veil to reveal
unseen dimensions of light and love,
I have never before seen?

How will I recognize this unseen gift?

I open to its light, clarity, beauty and connection, knowing that it lies in the flow of life – life, eternal and expansive.
