Stop Acting So Small
You are the Universe in Ecstatic Motion
Rumi
You got this thing called life....
Don't Belittle yourself,
Be Big yourself.
Corita Kent
Nature Chooses to Thrive
The natural world is filled with hopeful and inspiring stories
of renewal and recovery from disasters and the ordinary cycles of life.
Sit quietly, listen and learn.
Observe how nature revives itself through patient
and persistent regeneration--blossoming and flourishing
again and again no matter how long the winter or how fierce the storm.
Nature always chooses life and does what it must to start again.
We can too.
How can you utilize patience and persistence to help you flourish?
What can you learn from the natural world around you?
What part of your life do you want to nurture and grow?
What part of your life has waned that you want to flourish again?
What do you need to do to lay the seeds of regeneration and blooming?
What is one step you can take? What is another?
"The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you. Don't go back to sleep"
Rumi
"What You Seek"
Rumi
Trust the Natural Cycles of Life
If nature can come back from hardships so can you.
Turn your face towards the sun, and trust yourself
to successfully navigate the seasons of life.
There's a time for work; a time for play; a time for rest.
There's a time to lie low, a time to grieve,
and a time to harness your energy and heal.
Whether this is your time to quietly sit in a contemplative state of gestation
anticipating what comes next, or a time of actively birthing your life,
know it is always the right time for you to grow your life.
Your time is now.
Original Photo of Tree Bark Speaking to Me
This stunning tree bark is one of many delights of nature
greeting me on my daily walks. I often stop to admire its
ever-changing-with-the-seasons beauty while contemplating
the secrets it holds for weathering the storms and years.
What secrets does it hold for me today?
Today I see the natural flow of life in it's design.
I see its smoothed surface amid the bumps.
Today, I contemplate
reconnecting with the smooth flow of my life
despite the bumps I experience along the way.
I have the strength, patience and persistence to
thrive and create something beautiful out of the hardships.
