Creativity and Uncertainty!

⏱︎

I can feel the strong pull to welcome creativity into my life, particularly when plagued with the virus of uncertainty. The touch of creativity is not a matter of what I do, but how open I am to what is doing me.

Today, I remembered to yield to the feel of the morning chill, as I helped free the trees of their tangled branches. Lost in the moment; uncertainty gracefully yielded to indifference, followed by a sense of unwavering certainty. I could clearly feel the wind's tender support, particularly when the focus of attention was free of a personal point of view.

    Thank you for sharing such a simple and essential truth Carol. I really appreciate that Dr. Fauci is a "wax on, wax off" kind of guy. Now, is always the perfect time for such simple wisdom.

    Here’s a poem from Dr. Anthony Fauci:

    Wash your hands,
    Wear a mask,
    Watch your distance,
    Wash your hands.

    With all love and respect, Namaste, Carol.

    Uncertainty, the Not Knowing, l’m in a place today with my boys home for a 2 week visit, having flown here, that I needed to find a poem of serenity, as Keshav wrote about the Feel of the morning chill… here is George Lisi:

    follow the trailing fingers of the wind across your face
    lean close listen to the voices
    of the silver messenger that has always spoken truth to you
    for ages you have wandered under the impartial sky
    lean closer listen
    and follow the long wind all the way back
    to the primal home the welling light
    cradled deep within the heart.
