the calm of not knowing

On the days when everything feels difficult and

your load feels heavy, remember what a gift

this life is.

Step outside and take a look around you.

Listen to the happy chatter of the birds, how light and freely they move.

Feel the light energy in the breeze and watch the motion of the leaves on the trees..

Just spend some time in this zone of natural calm.

Watch your perspective slowly transform to one of gratitude and joy,

knowing that you are a part of all this wonder.

Leave your burden at the door. We aren’t meant to hold on to heavy loads,

our natural state is free and light.

Simply stepping outside, into nature,

will remind you of everything you are connected to.

~C.E. Coombes

many times I’ve seen this path before…

inquiry for today~ how will you listen now?

when it’s time to say ok, yes…

The unconscious always tries to produce an impossible situation

in order to force the individual to bring out his very best.

Otherwise one stops short of one’s best, one is not complete, one does not realize oneself.

What is needed is an impossible situation where one has to renounce one’s own will

and one’s own wit and do nothing but wait and trust

to the impersonal power of growth and development.

When you are up against a wall, be still and put down roots like a tree,

until clarity comes from deeper sources to see over that wall.

~Carl Jung
