Val / WW thank you for holding my hand so tight for this part of the ride. Your words of love and light took me to incredible places today in time and space. I spend a lot of time observing and reflecting. Almost constantly “out there” these days. Its the place I love the most. Your sharing with your hands gave me so much new insight. You have no idea how much you shown me. (Or maybe you do) I hope you do realize because I don’t know how to covey it with words. When I wake up in the morning I pay very close attention for the message delivered in the first fraction of a second before I realize where my body is at….Sometimes its a dream sometimes its just Thots. I usually let whatever “it is”… point me in to the path I should be following.
This morning I awoke to the feeling I forgot something….I did… I felt I need to share the stories / roles of the ROCK and the BUTTERFLY. The role of rock is strong almost unbreakable. Sturdy. Solid. Firm in his position. Hes grounded. He is Resilient. Usually stays in one place. The butterfly is incredibly beautiful. She can fly where ever she wants to explore. Follows her heart as she flies around the forest doing what she does best.
The rock knows her beauty because he is plain… Simple…like every other rock until you look close. He admires that she can just pick up and go where ever she wants so gracefully. When she get tired he is there for her as a strong safe place for her to land. He is always grateful she picked him for a landing pad. Its his pleasure to be so close to her beauty and freedom. She could have picked any old rock. But she chose him. The butterfly knows what she is and knows what the rock means to her. She loves him because she knows of his admiration. Its such a complement. She knows he will probably be in the same place waiting for her to return with her beauty and the places she has seen. There is a truth to their love for each other even though they are completely different forms of life.
As we all climb and reverse engineer the “greatest lie ever told” I have learned that the forest…observing nature has shown me so much when we look at the details. You have ALL been the greatest teachers I have ever known.
I did my regular routine this morning….little coffee, stepped outside in the light and the rain. Holding your hands in my Thots. I was really locked in to the field at this moment. Staring at the souls around me the patters they create today as they are all connected. Attempting to “see” them directly as they float away just outside direct view. Observing the “spinners” of light waiting to collapse from potentiality. I was so far out there reflecting on your words I didn’t realize a robin walked up right in front of me. I finally realized she was there we just stared at each other very closely. She wasn't afraid …. I was thinking wow this is cool. I was starring directly her eyes for some reason. This went on for about a min or so. I was kinda wanting to get back to my Thots an she took off to the other side of the drive way where I was standing. I went back to my Thots and lost my focus on the robin.
