"Allowing Life" There is so much letting go in this life But in the letting go We find there is also holding on Holding on to allowing life To allowing joy to be a part of life To opening to love Opening to what is And to what will be For that is life All of it The darkness and the light The letting go The holding on Life With all its messiness With all its beauty We let go We hold on

The Well of Grief Those who will not slip beneath The still surface on the well of grief Turning down to its black water To the place we cannot breathe Will never know The source from which we drink The secret water cold and clear Nor find in the darkness The small gold coins Thrown by those who wished for something else -David Whyte-

Watch for Signs of Spring Within every experience Lies opportunity Opportunity to enter more fully into life To learn and grow Sometimes we have to wait Be with something that has brought us to our knees Go inside Stay with the hurt, the pain, the fear Stay in the darkness Rest in the stillness Trust this process And just as in the winter Watch for signs of spring Signs of healing, of new life Signs of beginning again
