i liked this week's poem for its simplicity and the simple, natural things that it brings into perspective. It also reminded me of a passage on "An Awe Walk" that was shared recently. Come to think of it, everything made by God (or nature) is wondrous. The interconnections, the synergies, the consistency, the connect with nature of all things natural, are all awe-worthy. Seeing trees shed their leaves and then re-grow when the time is right, teaches so much about impermanence in everything. The ebb and rise of the waves, the rising and setting of the sun, they teach me to go along what comes my way. Personally, I have (more or less) stopped saying no to opportunities that present themselves because I do not know what path will come out of them. I tend to say yes more than no. I try to embrace what is coming my way. Of course, there is a liking for good things and an intention to leave what one doesn't like, but remembering about impermanence and of trees and sun, allow me to move ahead while embracing what comes my way.
