Fragile yet free..

I have always been amazed

and challenged by

 the beauty and fragility

of a bare tree.

Tree is totally vulnerable..

Every detail of tree's being

is made visible...

Tree's brokenness..

as well as tree's strength's...

Leaves and blossoms

 no longer conceal and protect

tree's flaws...scars..and emptiness.

Tree is most real...and genuine.

yet...

There is no shame

or fear...

This is who tree is!

 

Tree...

give me the courage

to be just as real..

and just as genuine..

without the desire

or need

to hide or be ashamed.

Like you

I want to be

Open..Fragile

and  Free...

Thank YOU...

forever

and always!!



The gift of Empowering...

 

Each time we share of our gifts

and of ourselves with another...

the giver and the receiver can be empowered..

Empowered

toward  growth

and newness.

New understandings

New beginnings...

We have no idea of all that is within us...

until someone reaches out

and helps us to see

the more of ourselves...

When we risk going forward

at each step

our sense of empowerment grows....

Did caterpillar

have any idea

of the Butterfly within? 

 

 



Color Power...

I love the deep dark of the limbs

calling forth the rich tones of red...

How often

 color

affects our movements

through the day...!
