It’s not necessarily always the hardest of folk that survive difficult times, the gentle ones have a way of bending and going with the flow of things that protects them through the harshest of days.

A cold frost can be hard, like the cold spells in life that are just too much for some. But after the frost with the first warmth of the sun things can start to look better. Eventually the sun will always burn through, life will always keep on giving if we trust.

Kindness sprinkled throughout the day is like blossom, it lifts moods and spreads out. A scattering of kindness can so easily change the scene.

When we are too cold, too taken up with stuff, maybe just too immersed in the material world. The bright red of the winter berries reminds us of love, passion, the rawness of life and the need to stay in touch with what’s real.

Not everything that touches us has to stay, we can choose to let things go, not become a part of who we are. Be it experience or words, if they do not fit with who we are, don’t let them in, instead acknowledge their passing and let them just gently roll away.

The flower opens gradually into the world, from bud to full bloom to when the heart opens. There are many layers that unfold along the journey to the heart.

Does the blade of grass see itself as separate from the field, or does it recognise itself as the field. When we continue to see ourselves as separate from anything else we become stuck, we are absorbed in the self. When we recognise our connection to all things we begin to understand our place in all things, we are then at one with the world and flow with the universe.

Nature welcomes each season, change is inevitable and each season brings with it something new. Nature bows gracefully to the new season, plants and flowers fall in death to nourish the earth, making way for new life, some will step aside as if suspended until a time of renewal. We all have our time to shine on earth, let it mean something.

Most of us carry around stuff that does not serve us such as outdated beliefs, imagined responsibilities, habits, dysfunctional relationships and other things that we no longer need. When we carry excess baggage around with us, it weighs us down and holds us up. To reach our destination it is good to acknowledge and let go of that what we no longer need by just letting it fall away.

If only it were our inner beings that interacted with the world around us, the very core of us, that what is the world and all things. If we communicate openly from the heart, we are more able to find and touch other hearts.
