Michael Meade's Pulled by Fate

This month I'm sharing Michael Meade's "Living Myth" podcast entitled "Pulled by Fate."  In this episode Meade shares the story of the old woman who weaves our fate from birth to death.  She is the old woman of the world who waits at the threshold between this and the Otherworld. We see her at the end of life when we try to match our life path to the one that was destined for us.  "Freedom," Meade says, "is consciously living out the hand that fate dealt us."  The old woman makes no moral judgement of the path we have taken.  For where there is no love, no morality will suffice. And where there is love no morality is needed.
