It is not easy to lose your life
Without becoming dead...
Stop for a moment, be still, pay attention. The signs of life reveal themselves. How your children grew up and your body packed up. That bird through the window, why you woke in the night. The receipts in your wallet, an intimidating email. Domestic dramas interrupting grander dreams. The intangible treasure of friendship, the bittersweet farewell, the communion of saints, all the names we make up for God.

'It is not easy to lose your life
But it's the only way to find it.
