by Ellen Rowland
I am cradling two truths at once
gathered across the vast divide.
There is pain, there is beauty.
I am strong and I weep.
Trees and people fall,
I plant more seeds.
They suffer,
so I
love.

The Braided Way
The Braided Way is a framework to see every faith tradition as a strand, braided into a larger whole of spiritual awareness. In the Braided Way, combining spiritual practice from various faiths allow us to explore sacred experience and wonder in forms that resonate with our personal spiritual needs and sacred intuitions. In today’s culture, many people shun religious dogma, but yearn for spiritual connection. The Braided Way allows the ceremonies and practices of multiple faiths to be available without the confinements of cultural dogma.
