We can approach the world open to experience all it has to offer, or remain closed. Both lives will be lived, there are no absolute rules. Only if we are capable of opening out into the world, it does seem an awful waste not to do so.

The world that we emerge into is already here, it continues after we leave. We can add beauty and make a difference on our way through, but we are only ever visiting.

However we choose to look at life, it happens. We can look away and pretend it’s not really happening, maybe busy ourselves with the mundane or we can be open to everything it has to offer and bask in the brightness of each and every moment.

In love, words are not necessary. Love is not words, love is knowing, sensing, feeling. Love is something that’s inside of each of us, that in silence reaches out.

Sometimes it’s not that the answer is evading us, it’s just that we are looking for it in the wrong place. The things in life we seek are not always in the direction everyone else is looking.

The softness of the young is something to behold, as all too soon life toughens the gentleness of youth. What was soft and trusting, transforms itself into something else completely. Let each transformation that occurs stand for something and may each line that grows be in your smile.

Like a flower, sometimes we are planted in just the right place, we find ourselves surrounded by the right people. Perhaps this is why we find flowers, even in the wild growing along side each other, they are meant to be together. The circle of people around each of us have been planted, the reason is not always obvious but always connected to growth.

There is something about age that is so rich. A depth of experience, woven with intrigue and scattered with nuggets of wisdom. Whether we are of the same kind or come from the same place, it is impossible not to feel humble in the presence of age.

The softest new bud grows out into the world, every encounter a lesson, an opportunity or threat. The bud trusts as it grows into itself that it will find it’s place in nature. As we spread out into the world, take chances, face our fears and become ourselves, we should also remember and trust that there is a place for us. Like the buds on the trees, we to have our place and part to play in nature.

There comes a time when we begin to realise who we are, we begin to see where we are going and start to understand what is really valuable in life. At this point we start to let go of what no longer serves us. Whatever this may be, just let it fall away and allow space for now.
