The Geography of Waiting: Becoming the Way Prepared
Abstract
“The Geography of Waiting: Becoming the Way Prepared” reflects on an Advent morning
when spontaneous dance in a sanctuary reimagined waiting as a living, participatory
hope. Blending poetry and prose, the piece invites readers to see both the places they
inhabit and their own lives as the geography where divine light and justice take root.
Through breath, movement, and embodied waiting, the reflection reminds us that we
ourselves are sacred places where participatory hope takes root and where God calls us
to become the way prepared.
