Walk, don't run, along your life's roads in humility, open to understanding, for all are designed as lessons in experience for the universal soul. Learn to breathe in deeply all of life that surrounds you; pause often, take time to observe every living thing; how a tiny seed transforms into a giant tree, gnarled roots enveloping the edge of a cliff on a lake. Note the cycles of life repeating; feel the growth energy fill and lift your heart as the spreading light of the morning sun gives nourishment to the land. Stand quietly in the rain as its life giving waters run over your skin entering the ground gently where you walk in wonder on one of life's countless roads. |

A breathtaking write Windwalker. Oh, how I floated in each verse, and beautiful the landing of the last. |

A magnificent mantra to wear and breathe in daily. You have found your song, and it is extraordinarily beautiful. |

WONDERFUL ‘write’!... I am GRANDLY fond of the ending in particular!: “Note the cycles of life repeating; feel the growth energy fill and lift your heart as the spreading light of the morning sun gives nourishment to the land. Stand quietly in the rain as its life giving waters run over your skin entering the ground gently where you walk in wonder on one of life's countless roads.” most serious, long-sustained applause!! |

Very nice. It seems like you have a positive outlook on life. That's so amazing to see. Most people pretend they do but it seems as if you actually do. Nice -Tara I’m good during the day. But at night I wait.I wait for the one who’ll never return. |
