Just Take a Few Steps

 

Featured image: Steps and Ladders

“There is no glimpse of the light without walking the path. You can’t get it from anyone else, nor can you give it to anyone. You just take whatever steps seem easiest for you, and as you take a few steps that are easy for you, take a few more steps, and then a few more steps. We must walk according to the highest light we have.”
— Peace Pilgrim

Extraordinariness

it’s a grey day

  but it’s not

 immersed in the day

  if you are immersed in

 its wonders

looking for extraordinariness

welcome, come with me

transforming the extraordinary

 into a symphony of sacred

 gentle rhythms

  ….from the earth

   ….from the sky

   ….from water

the extraordinary

thank you

extraordinary.

  Featured image: Hawk III As with most things, there are many ways to see and understand them; the hawk is no different. Hawks are beautiful birds—their plumage is always filled with a variety of feathers and colors: dots, stripes, reds, and browns. The hawk is known as a predatory bird because of the shape of its beak and talons, which is what I find fascinating about birds of prey.

Some common themes include courage, resilience, independence, and authority. They inspire humans to seize control of their destiny and rise above challenges. They are also seen as messengers from the spirit world. In some cultural stories, hawks serve as enforcers of the divine will.

A Day Later

Featured image: Sun, Tree, Water Even a day later, I can feel the rhythm of the water running through my body, making it one with the water, the earth, and the sky. Moving with all that is—this is the "isness" that I always talk about. A day later, reflecting on the wonderful experiences we had, I look at my hands and see, I still have the earth of the Northwest Territories under my nails. This earth, this tiny bit of earth and its totalness, represents the silence as the day ended far off on the horizon; the songs the wind and the trees sang; and the waves as they came crashing on the shore. The song of the line of forever, drawn between the water and the sky. The song of wholeness. The song of yes, yes, yes that I always talk about. The song of life, of connectedness, of naturalness, of possibilities—and the song of just being alive.
