Repurposed Life

It is said when one door closes another one opens. To some this is merely an expression, said in order to give one encouragement during a difficult time. I didn't buy into this type of half-hearted, sympathetic nonsense until my life became a perfect example. Once a broken shell of a man, with only his dog, Digger, as confidant and companion, to finding love and the desire to look forward to life's next adventure. Previously, I only viewed my lifetime of carpentry as a way of provided a living. Through events with Digger, the discovery of reclaimed wood and unexpected Spiritual help I was able to move beyond the obvious and open doors to dimensions beyond the tangible. Most of all it restored my heart to love once again. I now believe and trust in the process of life and the continued discovery and rediscovery of one's life's purpose. Doors closing and doors opening with lessons learned along the way.
