time zone

the time zone
between birth and
death.

we attempt to
fill this season with
life...

along the way we are told
by those who are more
of the take charge kind
that we have to do
certain things in a certain
way in order for this
time zone
"living"
to have meaning,
purpose,
success.

and yet
i'm not so sure...

what i have become
more sure of is
this time zone
"journey"
is not a cookie
cutter kind of
possibility.

no matter how hard we try
cramming all the matter
of each others lives
into the same shape....

it just doesn't work.

God created more
time zones than we
can fathom.
