The Soul Speaks

The Witness

Picture
 Take a deep breath into this difficult moment.
Sit with it long enough
to hear its personal invitation.

You who stand on the shoreline,
watching as life passes before you

… afraid to be in it,
afraid not to be …

step into the turbulent waters
and let them transform you.

Once you're in
you will Understand.

You will become familiar with Its way:
sometimes brutal and bloodthirsty
sometimes slow and still.

Most notably, you will stand witness to Its
constant
forward
motion.

Then, you will believe in Its power.

You will let Its wild way give birth
to a fearlessness within you
that could not have been unleashed
otherwise.

You will let your anger 
show you what you stand for
and then you will
boldly
stand for that
by being it.

Behind your desk.

At the dinner table.

With everyone and no one.

Try not to waste your energy
throwing mud into a river
that you cannot understand
from the shoreline, my love.

Instead, join the process.

Watch it transform you,
then,
watch as you
transform
the world.

Hi Erin. Hope this finds you and your family happy and healthy and that you are settling in to your new life. Tim and I are still adjusting to our many changes, but are happy for them. I miss your encouragement, insights, and infectious energy. Are you planning to continue your website? You truly are a wonderful inspiration. Peace-
Kathy
