The Way of a Pilgrim
Meet Sandra
“I live my life in widening circles stretching out across the world.
I may not complete this last one, but I give myself to it.
I circle around God, around that primordial tower.
I’ve been circling for thousands of years, and I still don’t know:
Am I a falcon, a storm or a great song?”
~Rainer Maria Rilke
Sandra’s life has grown wide like cirlces ‘widening’ in a pond. Her path is one anagolus to a Pilgrim’s Journey. Her kaleidoscope of interests are a ‘well’ from which she draws. Her desire to help others drew her to embark on a journey of hospital chaplaincy where for 20 years + she vested herself to care for persons who were facing the most vulnerable moments of their lives.
Her life long dream to become a police officer led her to make a major career shift & embrace another life—giving way. This quest, too, shaped her as she continued to weave the threads of mystery and beauty into life around her.
Her care for ALL of creation led her on unique adventures to Africa and to the caverns of the Grand Canyon. It was while she was ‘down’ in the inner ‘holy’ womb of the Canyon, that Sandra began to stretch, without seeing, all that was unfolding in her heart.
Sandra’s life is a living Pilgrimage…
She walks with ‘new’ steps each day encountering vast terrains, bringing to life poetic words and placing them on pages alongside her photography.
Sketches have become her dearest friends…
igniting her Muse, embracing her True Self.
