Part 6 - Poems from the Past

A young woman carefully weighs jewels and gold dust.
Trying to balance the scales without spilling her special jewels, the scales constantly shift up and down.
As she tried complex measuring techniques and calculations, only when she resorted to her simplest methods did the scales settle down.
She could then make educated trades for supplies to carry along with her on her spiritual journey. Following and enjoying simpler measures, she also began to live and take on whatever came her way.

With her air cleared and freshened, her pink scarf tied around her neck, protecting her from the cold and at the same time accenting her princess rosy cheeks, she tackled the hurdles that came before her with confidence.
She carries a candle, bright enough to give light for direction.
Her path is lined with full length mirrors, meeting people along the way whose reflections constitute a small part of her whole being.
She learns and dreams of every image she sees and, in a small way, she touches others, by showing them that dreams really can come true. oung woman carefully weighs jewels and gold dust.

~I think God was giving me a glimpse of what it will be like when I found Him. That once the 'air cleared' I would tackle life's hurdles with confidence, because I would have Him as my light to help me along the way; and, that I would be able to look at others with compassion and understanding.
