Carried: Abortion

It was a beginning that met a not-now, a season and a set of conditions that could not take it up.

It shows as a profound sense of mistiming, a 'later, or maybe never' around a beginning that arrived when those involved were not at peace and the conditions were not right, weighted by a fear of the responsibilities ahead in someone who had already carried too much too young. The story it holds is of a not-yet, not a verdict of worth. This can be tender ground, and support is worth seeking where it grieves. What it asks for is to let the mistiming be mourned plainly, without carrying it as a fault.

The Archetypal Form

The seed in the parable that fell where the ground was thin and the season wrong, that could not take root through no fault of its own. The form implies a task: to grieve what could not take, without indicting the seed or the soil.
