Life's Teachings

Contemplating Life, she has taught me:

to surrender into the One, by watching my dog fall to sleep;

to radiate light, by watching the sun;

to be receptive, by meditating on the crescent moon;

to reflect light, by watching a full moon;

to absorb light, by meditating on green leaves;

to understand unity, by reflecting on Nature;

to experience harmony, by listening to a symphony;

to understand inter-dependence, by watching humanity;

to flow, by watching brooks and streams;

to understand greatness, by communicating with trees;

to be magnanimous, by contemplating the Ocean;

to feel raw power, by watching storms;

to discover vastness, by observing the starry cosmos;

to be empty, by contemplating space;

to feel omnipresence, by observing the sky;

to give, by watching Mother Earth;

to be optimistic, by watching flowers open at dawn;

to feel freedom, by watching the wind;

to be in the moment, by observing a cat watch a bird;

to be innocence, by playing with children;

to see the heavenly spheres, by looking into the eyes of a baby;

to understand the cycles life, by observing the seasons unfold.

And just think, there is so much yet to Learn!
