With roots

whatever you have to say, leave
the roots on, let them
dangle

And the dirt

Just to make clear
where they come from ~ Charles Olson, These days

What do you notice?

Cross current

Hope is disruptive, counter to dominant wind patterns, interrupting what is mapped—a crosscurrent pushing with creativity and truth in directions that many may think neither possible nor desirable. ~ Mark Labberton

What direction is hope pushing you?

Enfolded

Beauty is all around us, yet so much passes us by because we are too busy, too worried, too tired. Just a few moments settled in our favorite spot can restore us wether we hold a cup of coffee/tea, wrap a colorful quilt around us or feel the warmth of the sun.

What moments restore you?

Resting

What an amazing thing it would be to have the rhythms of your life regularly usher you into such deep trust that you could actually rest from it all. Who would we be, who would I be, if I trusted like this for twenty-four hours once a week? ~ Ruth Haley Barton

Do you trust enough to rest?
