Deep in thought, I nearly missed him…a beautiful towhee resting quietly.
It had been one of those mornings…my mind racing with overwhelming thoughts. And as I often do, I headed to the woods for respite.
As I watched the little bird, I had a realization. Worry and angst are absent in the natural world.
Animals flow with the currents of life. They meet life as it is, then adapt and change and move forward.
I suspect it’s time to stop wishing and waiting for outer circumstances to change. Perhaps it’s time to change within…my thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes.
With that insight, my heart felt lighter…and I wandered on.
