From the Heart
The embodiment of graceful, you as you near to me.
as graceful as a big white swan, gliding purposefully.
A gentle sparrow on the wing, the songbird you can see,
the pigeons as they gently kiss, as graceful as can be.

So truly very graceful, like the head of a falling rose,
dipping gently towards earth, with dignity not woe.
and as she lies out on her bed, the end is coming soon
gracefully she kisses earth, where her love once bloomed.
Swim out of your little pond ~ Rumi
Wouldn’t it be easy if we could just float through life. Can you imagine if everything was clear, we knew where we were going, how to get there and what would happen next.
On the surface it seams simple, but there are always the things beneath and around us that pull us this way and that, the currents that knock us off course for a while. These can be our experiences, the ones that mould us, some forgotten or buried and some crashing around us at any moment.
We are deeper than we appear on the surface, with depths that can be murky. Sometimes we just have to wade through sludge to get to where we want to be and sometimes it’s just plain sailing.
The most important thing is we have inside of us, the ability and strength of spirit to make anything possible, we just have to keep afloat.
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere ~ Rumi
