Stop and listen to the heart, the wind outside, to one another,
to the changing patterns of this mysterious life.
It comes moment after moment,
out of nothing, and disappears into nothing.
Live with less grasping and more appreciation and caring.
– Jack Kornfield
The storm of change, it has been literally. I hope wherever you are, you are safe. This very unusual storm or atmospheric river, has been a force to be reckoned with. It has interrupted our routine, the things we count on like power or clear roads, or even going for a long walk. We’ve been called to find another way, to stop and consider what we have in a perhaps deeper way. To be kind and patient to those we share paths with. “EVERYONE CARRIES A HEAVY LOAD”.
An opportunity to step out of our normal routine can be a very useful experience. To see our soft spots, our triggers, our supports, our blessings. What have we noticed about ourselves, those close to us in relationship and how do we interact under stress.
What are our strengths? Aspects we’d like to step into more fully? Let go of? What is calling our attention now?
My thoughts and heart are with you. I look forward to seeing and reconnecting deeply; soon.
In respect & gratitude,
Cynthia
