Honour
Stopping on one of my morning walks to be taken away by the absolute beauty of this plant, I paused. In one moment taking in this plant’s whole story of waiting for the exact moment to decorate it’s surroundings with this most beautiful bloom.
I can be so captured by nature at times, those who know me well - know that I stop, say briefly what I’m looking at and then just let the magic of what is in front embrace me. Like I am recognising how staying put, learning to adapt to the environment can bring about the most brilliant, unique display of abundance showing that through all the environmental changes that nature gives us, there can still be the possibility of the most exquisite bloom - like the one in this photo!
And then I went about my day, yoga, a chiro adjustment, checking and responding to emails, planning and oh - that’s right every now and then I process a flashback, so as I called the appropriate service to talk, cry and move through this experience……….
I looked over my shoulder
To see, hear and feel the past, breathe its eerie truth
As it was, pausing to exhale
Seeing my willingness of spirit to continue on
Back then, not quite understanding
The distance or the pain or the shame
However I totally understood the love that held me afloat
Love’s compass was the flow to move me into the next day
And find a new truth of
Belonging, freedom and peace
All of the one moments, leading to the present
Before turning to the mystery of what might be possible.
Winding up my phone call I talked about how I wanted to honour this moment and decided I would buy myself some flowers.
Now as an adult, I’m able to fully move into all the wonderful places I could only touch by thought as a child. Reclaiming the whole experience.
HANGING OUT WITH A HORSE
Sacred space around a horse
A rich field of energy
Touchable, reachable
Eyes watching and waiting to connect
In a moment
Stay and immerse yourself in paradise
To feel, to heal
Be moved and lifted
Beyond whatever ache is yours
These moments are the gift
Given to you by
Hanging out with a horse.
Whatever comes across your path today, honour it with as much love as you can.
