🌸 Noire Henro-san: Life Changes

Throwback: Answers

H

ere I am, over 30 years ago cruising along on a boat on a Dutch canal. I was beginning a new chapter in my life seeking answers to questions that I… well, you know. Change was happening even then.

Living everything

Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.

– Ranier Maria Rilke

During the spring of 2024, I began a pilgrimage in Japan where I am walking 1200 kilometers or 720 miles on the Shikoku trail from Temple 1 Ryōzenji to Temple 88 Ōkuboji and beyond. Read my original announcement here.

I am excited, and I am here, still walking. And just know this, I will return to tell the tale!
