Afire

“The miracle is not to walk on water but on the earth. —Thich Nhat Hanh”

“Earth’s crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God: But only he who sees takes off his shoes.” – Elizabeth Barrett Browning

As summer moves into its third act, stay with it all of the way through to the end rather than lament it’s over.
Take in the late blooming flowers in shapes and colors unseen.
Sunrises and sunsets, and each moment in between.
Fall with harvest bounty will enter on cue, with gifts of its own.
In the meantime, do not dismiss the last act.
Earth is crammed with heaven indeed when you live into new ways of thinking.
Breath and drink it all in.

“We do not think ourselves into new ways of living, we live ourselves into new ways of thinking.”― Richard Rohr

  1. Good one Kathie, we often lament summer and stop enjoying it too soon.
