Jewelweed
While some of our patch has been crushed and damaged
by an animal, we are no less than what we were. Our energy still sings with the
life of what we are. There is no sensation of loss or of difficulty. Nor would
there be a sense of triumph in any of these broken stems being once again able
to stand up and grow soundly. We simply are what we are. Comparison has no room
in our existence. Regret, disappointment or triumph has no bearing on our
spirit. We simply are, in all of our sweetness, Jewelweed. See yourself this
way, then when you feel crushed or beaten down, when you feel damaged or as
though your life is difficult. Remember, that like Jewelweed, the essence of who
you are is intact. Leave ideas of triumph or despair behind. Leave comparison
behind and revel in the glory of your own spirit as we revel in our own. We are
Jewelweed. Be like us.
When you are feeling lonely, listen to the sound of the
cricket outside your window, or to the rustle of leaves on a tree. In that
moment when you connect with cricket and listen to it in an appreciative way,
you move out of loneliness and into connection with the world around you. It is
this connection that heals you.
Each path you take is a path of discovery - is a path of
genesis. Each choice builds a composite that leads to a natural progression.
A path taken with awareness, with consideration, can build a composite that
lends itself to harmony. Choose your thoughts well when you can. Become
aware of the path you are taking and you open to the possibility of freedom.
We are Jewelweed.
