Wow. This hits hard today. I'm not only getting married next month, but after two years with my current employer, I recently accepted a position in a different industry that I'll begin after my honeymoon in October. Lots of big feelings accompanying big decisions!

This reflection reminds me of a favorite song from my childhood: "Sunrises, night falls, sometimes the sky calls. Is that a song there and do I belong there? I've never been there, but I know the way. I'm going to go back there someday."

Great story and enlightenment David, many cultures have the wisdom of the ages. One more question for many is then> what is my inner soul directing me towards and how can my relationship with God (IHS) be more fulfilling. Without that question of God we are but limited to us...which no matter the enlightenment is only human and not divine. Pax, Lux et Amor! Veritas IHS
