I was thinking about life,
the ups and downs and how things sometimes flow so easily and at other times
seem like such a struggle. It is the
human experience, our way of learning what works for us and what does not. Esther and Jerry Hicks in their book, The
Astonishing Power of Emotions, Let Your Feelings Be Your Guide, talk at length
about following the natural flow of life. They use the analogy of canoeing
upstream and the futility of trying to get anywhere in the current. How if you stop paddling and allow your canoe
to turn and flow downstream everything you need will come to you.
On my last trip to the
creek I watched a Leaf floating in the water and I remembered this book and
their analogy and I watched that leaf, just following the flow of the
water. Around boulders, over rocks simply
floating along, until it hit the rapids and went diving deep under the water,
swirling around and dancing,before floating back up and
doing it all again. My Wonder Filled
Moment was remembering that when things are not feeling comfortable we may have
dove into the rapids and simply need to dance with the waters until we float to
the surface and flow with the tides of our life once again.
In Gratitude,
