~ Soaring into lightness ~

Recently I had been grumbling about some things. I get like that sometimes. Agitations that roll around in my thoughts. Imagined conversations working to defend the ground I’ve rooted myself in.
 
Then Grace. I was in a group breath meditation reflecting on light. At first, I saw myself leaning into the light, like a plant leaning herself toward the sun. I wondered, right now, in this situation, how can I lean into light?  In this moment, how do I lean toward something new and nurturing? And what difference can that make?
 
As I leaned toward that light, something shifted and that light became a feeling of weightlessness. I felt an effervescent lightness filling my body that effortlessly lifted me. It kept lifting me until I had a far-reaching view. From that bird’s eye view my perspective was new, fresh, easy, and peaceful. New insights and inspirations met me there.
 
A couple days later I explored that lightness when I worked with my own coach. During my session that lightness soaked deep into my body. Deep into my knowing.
 
That afternoon, “coincidently”, a friend took me up to the top of a mountain close to my home.  From there, the piece of land I live on blended into a patchwork collage of fields, forests, and farms. My home, and the 180 acres of land I live on, was just a small patch in the expansive vista.
 
I was captivated by the group of crows who were effortlessly soaring, spinning and floating in the invisible currents that gently carried them.  They appeared weightless.  And just like those birds, my vision soared effortlessly into expanded horizons.
 
And I remember that it’s like this— when I pay attention, life works this way; a tapestry of grace and blessings that invite me home to myself and holds me as I soar. 

Soaring into this moment with you, in love,
