Be the caterpillar!

It's spring and caterpillars are raining from the trees. I love to pick them up off the road and toss them gently into the brush. Then I imagine the human reaction to being lifted and tossed into the unknown - most likely screams of terror at the fear of oblivion!

A Peace practice today is to trust; what looks like impending doom may indeed be the giant forces of life saving you from being squished and loving you into a soft landing. You can't know until you land! O.k., you can scream if you think that helps!

Be the caterpillar!

Flip your switch!

Yes, in order to find Peace, your own light must be on.

You must "flip on your internal light switch" first, to shine a light on the Peace that's already out there and the Peace that's possible. And, not to get too tangled up in metaphors, your switch is your commitment!

Today imagine flipping on your commitment switch and walking around with your internal light glowing brightly enough to light the path for yourself AND OTHERS who don't know how to flip their switch :(.

This little light of yours.....da da da da dee dee! Let it shine!

Love you,

Darlene

Birthing Trust!

Brother David Steindl-Rast, OSB, offers a way to Peace.

He invites us to see birth as a process of moving into the unknown of life and TRUSTING, just as we did with our first birth; and to see that we have many birth opportunities, that life is an ongoing process of being born.

What Peace is available to you today if you reframe your life this way, holding it gently as an opportunity to trust and be born afresh into life?

I wonder.

Love,

Darlene
