Slippery Slope

Isn't that a strange phrase? I heard a business guy say it in a meeting once and I thought it sounded cheesy; one of those faddish phrases people toss around, like "I'm so jazzed about this new product!" But this week I think I'm learning about--and maybe walking along--a slippery slope of my own perspective. That whole "know yourself" thing is really a lifetime effort, you know. Just when I think I know what I'm talking about, something comes along to show me that I don't quite have it cornered just yet. Finding the faith to keep taking steps in the dark, trusting that there's understanding here and acceptance even before understanding comes, is what it's all about.
