And if we look carefully we will discover that this empty space is a perfect God-shaped space waiting to be filled by our Higher Power with things far beyond our meager imaginations.
there is a space that exists
it stands hollow and empty
it is somewhere in your room
in a conversation
a lacking in your life
.
you rush to fill it
but not all spaces
must be occupied
.
allow for an emptiness
accept on occasion
a matter of nothingness
use the space as a respite
sometimes where there is nothing
there is the freedom
to catch your breath
to take a break
to bide your time
to contemplate
gather yourself
gain strength
place nothing where there is nothing
some spaces are meant to stand empty

Hi Karen,
It was so nice to catch up with you yesterday, even though Rene was in the room and I couldn’t speak freely. I rested all weekend and feel better today. I am still reflecting on your blog and have shared it with friends. Sounds like you are sharing a lovely home with your family. I know it will work out as it should. Let’s keep in touch..
Claudia
