I am in new territory... again. The rules and constrictions don*t exactly fit. I have an office... yes. I meet with people... yes. I charge by the hour... yes. How to name it? How to advertise? Is it therapy? Consulting? Spiritual direction? Pastoral counseling? What shall we call it? And...does it really matter?
What shall we call it,
This thing that we do?
If it is marked on my calendar,
An hour is allotted.
A particular fee charged,
What shall we call it
This thing that we do
Together?
If I listen to your edges
And trajectories;
If I name what I hear,
The bits and pieces
The themes
So they come alive
In the center of the room?
What shall we call it
When we dance
With what we find,
Sing along,
Befriend.
Maybe even
Cast it into outer darkness.
What shall we call it
This thing that we do
Together?
