sippin’ slowly

I sometimes forget

that I was created for Joy.

My mind is too busy.

My Heart is too heavy

for me to remember

that I have been

called to dance

the Sacred dance of life.

I was created to smile

To Love

To be lifted up

And to lift others up.

O’ Sacred One

Untangle my feet

from all that trap

Free my soul.

That we might

Dance

and that our dancing

might be infectious

~Rumi

from within, this is where I begin….

inquiry for today~ when your heart aches today, how will you seek light?

calling all the things….

There is a quiet light that shines in every heart. It draws no attention to itself,

though it is always secretly there. It is what illuminates our minds to see beauty,

our desire to seek possibility, and our hearts to love life. Without this subtle quickening

our days would be empty and wearisome, and no horizon would ever awaken our longing.

Our passion for life is quietly sustained from somewhere in us

that is wedded to the energy and excitement of life.

This shy inner light is what enables us to recognize

and receive our very presence here as blessing.

~John O’Donohue
