Thanks for the story foretold.... Just heard it today.

________, I was so mad when you told me that I would stop doing the work one day.  You didn’t even know the work that I was doing and yet you said I would stop.  I had barely begun and you were focused on that day when I would no longer do that work.  Isn’t it funny that you now do the work I used to do?  And I am not made any more.  Just woke up this morning and realized that I had been mad at you for so long.  And that, in the moment of that knowing, I am not mad any more.  And, you were right.  And wrong.  Wise in that time in a time that I could not see a path.  And, so intent on the path that I was walking that to have a voice say that I would step off that path one day… well, I could not hear it then.  And now, I smile.  For you were right, and wrong.  The work never stops.  What it looks like to another?  Well, that is a different story.
