Kay Turbak in the center of the Labyrinth at Windermere Ranch, June 2021.<\/em><\/p>\n I begin my walk slowly, acutely aware of my friend and fellow pilgrim. I become confused, wondering if I am traveling in the \u201cright\u201d direction. I am being moved by something beyond my immediate recognition or perception. I am aware that I am being navigated, moved into a greater reality. I continue walking, and return to where I started, at the Threshold of Peace, Kay Turbak I begin my walk slowly, acutely aware of my friend and fellow pilgrim. I want to respect her sense of space and timing, and not \u201crun\u201d into her.

\nI want to respect her sense of space and timing, and not \u201crun\u201d into her.
\nInevitably I cross over the stones into another lane, entering into a new \u201ccircuit\u201d \u2013
\n– a pathway of the earth, of the brain, of the soul.<\/p>\n
\nIndeed, there are no mistakes or missteps when walking the labyrinth.
\nSo begins The Unraveling<\/em> \u2013 a loosening and letting go, an unwinding of the tight
\nthreads of certainty and purpose.<\/p>\n
\nI enter the center of the labyrinth, the sacred circle, which for me is usually a
\ntime to reflect upon my life circumstances, meditate, pray.
\nOnly this time there is nothing \u201cthere\u201d \u2013 nothing to contemplate or consider.
\nI softly surrender, unfurled and enfolded into a pure and perfect Peace.<\/p>\n
\nThe sinuosity and circuitous nature of labyrinthine experiences are symbolic.
\nIt is really very simple: despite the twists and turns of life, take the next step forward<\/u>.<\/p>\n
\nforever changed.<\/p>\n
