This morning, a scent grabbed me,
nuzzling a part of me that
had been slumbering
all these winter months.
In a split second,
this flower,
and all her itty bitties,
woke me up.
A paradise of scentrific
exploration then moved into
visual discovery: the bud on the tree
saying hello! as she slowly opened.
Around the corner
the tree is full
of cylinders pushing outwards,
in just the right pacing.
Look! See?
The unfolding
birthing
“...I wanted to get lost, to find.” Yaa Gyasi
Letting myself be lost... staying in beginner’s mind- it is the deepest invitation these days for me. I watch my mind try to grasp onto this, or that, so as to have some (delusionary) control.
Here is my 5th piece in my blog series on Discomfort. In my upcoming 2021 Exploration we will learn how life altering it is to Know safety with/in our being, so that we do not have to try to control that which is outside of ourselves in order to “have” safety, and we will learn how to support others in discovering this as well.
