The way of the pilgrim The spiritual way. The oldest story to tell and retell
This is the Chartres Cathedral labyrinth, a picture that is always somewhere on our walls.
In walking the Chartres labyrinth, or following with your mind (or finger) the walker meanders through each of the four quadrants several times before reaching the goal.
Citing Jung:
"The combination of the cross with the circle represents the synthesis of the four elements which are forever tending to fall apart. It unites the circle of wholeness and of spirit with the square of matter and security.The squaring of the circle is one of the many archetypal motifs which form the basic pattern of our dreams and fantasies. It could even be called the archetype of wholeness. Because of this significance, the 'quarternity of one' is a schema for all images of God"

Presence, the present, a gift. For living as it presents itself. No one says it will always be a welcome gift, but a gift it is. What I am is just grace, what I have is just on loan. Nice catch, well presented!
