Poetic Peace Pilgrimage – Year 9 – Day 245 – 8/18/2022

“I live my life in widening circles

that reach out across the world.

I may never complete this last one,

but I give myself to it.

I circle around God, that primordial tower.

I’ve been circling for thousands of years

and I still don’t know: am I a falcon,

a storm, or a great song?”

~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~

standing still in the center of the wheel this moment of eternity – on this day when science is catching up understanding we didn’t come from the great bang and women got the right to vote in the usa and It’s Krishna’s birthday and national bee day – communing with source and by extension with all that is brings peace and the understanding it is the moment to break free and live in ever widening circles of compassion spiraling deeper and more expansively…

wowzer! what a most interesting moment we are in as we circle around what is and who we are demonstrating that we, like the cosmos, are ever expanding and deepening and we have it in us to face into the pain, the suffering, the despair of  a world of  uncertainty supported by the boundless wellspring of love always flowing through us, around us, above us below us, beside us…

yes, this moment’s the moment to stop the world, to stand still in the center and listen to all the messages of the inspiriting whirling winds of change as the spirits come back…

re-membering, we can always return to the breath being still and fully present in this beautiful moment being a mantra of thanksgiving, being a falcon of free flight, being a song of joyous delight, taking this moment, this wild precious moment to love boundlessly and shine luminously as a beacon of wise hope and comfort in the storm… blessed bee!
