Like an old gold-panning prospector, you must resign yourself to digging up a lot of sand from which you will later patiently wash out a few minute particles of gold ore. Sometimes we feel buried in sand, blocked, clogged, unable to move. Then we must remember that we are not alone. Help is at hand, if only we will ask for it. If we invoke our higher power, our source of spiritual strength can help us to believe that there is gold somewhere in all this sand, and that the sand itself is useful. No one and no thing is good all the time. Let us remember that if we expect nothing but gold, we are distorting life, getting in our own way. We dont want to falsify the texture of our lives; the homespun quality helps us to appreciate the gold when it appears. I will find some gold among the sand, today.
