Layers of Sediment

The Grand Canyon is an amazing place to visit. The vastness of the landscape and depth to the canyon  floor is almost incomprehensible. As I traveled along the miles of rim country peering into the abyss below, something very raw, connected inside.

As durable and stable as this area appears to be from our uneducated eye, it is really very vulnerable to many types of changes.  Erosion is an everyday reality. It is erosion, a peeling away, that created and continues to transform this terrain. It is the erosion that highlights the beauty of what lies below.

Likewise, it is the misconceptions and disillusionments that need to be parted in our lives, in order to expose the depth of who we really are. When we learn The Way and do The Work, we arrive at a sense of personal clarity that illuminates our entire being.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

"Sometimes, we have to peel back many layers in order to find the root of what is really important." tc
