Maybe the vanilla white square provided the inspiration on a frigid winter day in Iowa. For in that white square was a story waiting to be written. The blank square may have reminded Juliana of the infinite possibility she faced to create a life for herself, not determined by the standards of others, but molded by her own hand. Or did the white square move her gaze from the blanket and out the window into the snowy Iowa winter that was holding her captive, bound to a chair by the fire, unable to reach her potential? Maybe being held hostage by those cold, white flakes piled high outside her door helped her to understand her situation and to throw off the chains of a life she knew could be so much better.Whatever square might have provided the impetus for Juliana to become a touring pro, it is the entire quilt that tells the story. Like a blade of grass does not make up the whole lawn, nor a single throw constitute an entire round, it is the cumulative experience of one that brings to bear how we run our lives. There may be instances that alter our course forever, but only our complete experience give us the tools to navigate life. So when deciding on how you will act, what you will do, and why you are doing it, take an inventory of the squares of your life, but never loose sight of the entire quilt. |
