Todays Affirmation: I am part of every movement, every breath, every flower unfolding, every blade of grass growing, every bird, insect, animal and human being. I am one with the universe. Its (sort of) Spring! Lilies are popping up, and there are other perennials that we planted last year and dont remember what they are, but that are showing themselves slowly, but surely, irrespective of our memories. Although Im not crazy about the muddy aspect of Spring, I accept it because its part of the cycle. We need the rain to moisten and green-up the grasses, to nudge the trees to budding. The birds come and sing in the morning (unless its raining too hard), and the squirrels have been busy trying to find all the treasures they planted last fall. And people are finally out, rain or no, walking their walks and waving hello. I am one with the universe. I went to a workshop earlier this month on Ojibwa spirituality and one of the take-aways for me was the idea that all things with shadow have life and should be respected. I like that - it is a reminder to respect ALL things; energy is energy is energy. Im blessed to be able to take my time most days, looking out at the changing landscape as the sun comes up (or not). Watching the play of light on the houses across the street, seeing which dogs masters and mistresses are out and about early in the morning. We all breathe in and out, sharing the same air, the same universe. Does an exhale in Nepal reach an inhale in Minnesota? Not sure, but like the thought. Today my universe will be celebrated in the micro-universe of my studio. Ive not been there for a few days, and am itching to get out there and get going. Its an interesting phenomenon to be pulled to something rather than to be forced to do. In this case, the law of attraction is winning. And so, I go. Praying that I remember to praise the Maker for all of the beauty surrounding me and for all the changes that the rains and winds bring - even the last of the Spring snowfalls. Praying thanksgiving for you - as we continue our walk together in the amazing universe weve been given. Blessings and productivity and rest and rejuvenation as we move about the day . . .
