Finding Our Way……

01/17/2021 by Aruni

Finding Our Way……
We are Finding Our Way

I stand and I ponder.

I’m always touched 
By
The beauty 
Of the
Wetlands.

Today
The shine
Of 
Almost-sunset 
On the ice,

The 
Grey-silver
Blanket 
Of 
Clouds,

Together
Take 
Away
My breath
With its
Soft
Intensity.

And
The
Footprints.

The footprints!

What 
Messengers
Have
Left them 
For
Our 
Edification?

For our
Silent
Solace?

Bunnies?
Ducks?

Beings 
So much
More connected
Than
You
Or
I.

Beings

(Bunnies?  Ducks?)

That have enough
Instinctual sense
To walk
One
Step,

One 
Step,

One
Step
At
A 
Time.

And find their way.

I stand.
I ponder.
I consider.

We are finding our way.

How many times in the last ten months have we heard the word—unprecedented?
Here we are again,
Walking through
An 
Unprecedented
Flurry
Of
Events.

What do we know to be true?

Let’s ask the bunnies.
Let’s ask the ducks.

One
Step,

One
Step, 

Just one step
At a time.

We don’t have to know the outcome.
(Damn-it!)

We don’t have to plan the course.
(Double-Dutch-Damn-It!)

Just one foot,

One
Step,

One
Step 
At a time

Across the unprecedented
Landscape
Of
This
Moment.


 

Inspiration

Dear Friends, 

No outside ‘thing’ could spark that place of inspiration inside of me this past week.  I have had to look deeply inside myself, quieting down in order to find places of solace and silent ease.

I would like to share two of them with you.

The first is a silent video I took the other day on a walk.  I received much comfort from the flowing water and I’m so grateful to share it with you.

And—I was appropriately silent for twenty seconds.  Always a victory on my end.

Secondly, from my home to your home, from my heart to your heart, here is a guided meditation on Finding Our Way.  May this ten-minute-ish inspiration support you in relaxing, realigning, and remembering.
