Two years, one month and sixteen days after my labyrinth journey began in Florida, it will end in Hawaii!
July 3rd. 2:30 pm at Eve Hogan's labyrinth on Maui.
I have walked a labyrinth in forty-nine states -- each outdoors, each envisioned and brought to life by a woman. I have spent one hour, two, up to four hours, with each labyrinth creator. . hearing her story.
With one more labyrinth to walk and story to hear, the significance of this journey is only beginning to sink in. I have kept the ending at arm's length, not yet ready to reflect. However, as Drew and I step on the plane tomorrow, that process will begin. The end of the journey will become real.
And what an ending! Drew and I will spend five days on Maui with our dear friends, Marian and Jim Levine. Marian traveled with me, actually did all the driving, through the northeastern states; then joined me again in Tennessee, Mississippi and Kentucky. We had a vision even then -- Hawaii #50!
I will post pictures of the last labyrinth walk on Facebook and this blog. If you are close to a labyrinth, I invite you to walk along with me on the 3rd. Many of my "Labyrinth Friends," in the other forty-nine states, are planning to walk their labyrinths that day and post pictures to my Facebook page or send emails -- a Cyber Celebration!
One of them recently wrote to ask how I'm feeling about reaching the end of the path. She offered words which have become my mantra. . .
I wonder where this "end" is leading me.
Bur first -- Hawaii. Here we come!

Lives and stories now woven into my own.
