The conference room was the Library.   It was filled with artwork that respects one’s memories of books, study, and quietness.  The triptych variation centred on stacked books imagined by the artist that leaned to the left, right, and centre, all eventually pointing one’s eyes upwards to the higher source of truth.  It was a fun challenge that left me reflecting on my journey and the question that one faces with time; “What’s there to show for a lifetime of work, a lifetime of working your fingers to the bone?” (Ecclesiastes 1:3)

My first and primary mission is to myself.  I looked at the books, wondered about the titles, and realised that I alone am responsible for who and what I have become.  I am not always a fast learner, so the construction process for building the building that is me has taken a lifetime, and there is still more to be done!  Yes, there is potential.  Yes, there are things I can be proud of.  Yes, there is still much to correct, restore, and construct.  As the primary builder, I determine the materials that go into my mind, heart, and soul.  I shape out the values expressed.  I determine if the building work continues or if I will leave it as it is.

Form follows function.  In the simplicity of this awareness, I rediscovered that my life is measured by my heart and how it expresses itself in my relationships.  I have been in a rush most of my life.  I have discovered the joy and wonder in slowing down and sharing time with others.  In letting the moment be the goal, I opened myself up to opportunities to listen and support the work others were doing and, in the process, realised the work underway within me.  Individuals, including myself, come in many shapes and sizes.  The size of the heart and the depth of the soul revealed in the unguarded moments of life speak to the architect, materials, and, ultimately, the person.

It is time to go to work – on me and for you.
