returning to values
Suddenly rediscovering what's of value gives us a sense of renewal and an injection of energy. A poem comes to mind:
i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday;
this is the birthday of life and love and wings;
and of the gay great happening illimitably earth

I remember sitting in a staff meeting, a gathering of leaders, where slowly but surely the mojo in the room began to ebb away and we all were experiencing the numbness of little accomplishment and wasted time. We were "dead" to ourselves and to one another yet couldn't stop arguing and talking as if that might break the spell.
Our wise leader offered us a way to become "...alive again today..." She reminded us to return to what we valued; that what we decided as a team needed to be based upon what we valued. Stated another way, our choice needed to mesh with what we stood for and the reasons we existed in the first place.
Threshold Journey exists to support those who are becoming aware that they are not "...alive again today,..." We provide a quiet space where people can discover again that they are standing on Holy Ground, that their values are alive and well but just need some time and quiet and reflection to awaken again to the "...birth day of life." Threshold Journey can offer a spiritual companion for crossing this threshold or just the quiet time to listen to one's soul in an inspiring natural setting.
