Stillness 4-5
Do you ever wonder why walnuts grow on mighty trees and pumpkins on delicate vines?
Do you ever wonder why walnuts grow on mighty trees and pumpkins on delicate vines?
instead of patiently waiting, be actively watching.
When fate deals you a
cruel blow
there’s only one thing
to be done
be cheerful and go on.
bubble up – spill over – and bubble up again. See what happens.
when your heart knocks, open up. Who knows what may appear
there is a way through.
lighten up, you!
dreamily glide into your grief, your great love, your transformation
Some mysteries cannot be solved – they only can be lived.
what does it feel like to be a serene bridge to the other side?
I’m not asking you to give up hope – I’m asking you to love what is.
instead of feeling you’ve been left high and dry – bask in the sunshine.
The reason we have thorns is to protect our vulnerability. Love your thorns, your succulence, and your vulnerability.
you belong where you are – not where others think you should be.
before pursuit be very still.
today stop and take a different way.
spring comes around again so set yourself free – you don’t lose the past by embracing it and letting it be.
make yourself heard loud and clear – then listen
be like a cloud forest – you don’t have to see everything at once.
when things don’t turn out the way you expect, change your expectations.
expand as far out into your periphery as you can.
peel yourself – bite into your pungent emotions.
