The Peace is in the Process
We go through life fishing only to realize it wasn’t fish we were after ~ Thoreau
The winter season has many birthday’s in my family; today is my Father’s and my Mother’s in February. As my parents age (and I do as well), its hard not to notice the swift movement between the seasons of life catching us by surprise.
Looking a bit deeper, exploring my own experience more closely, I can appreciate the moments I tend to hold onto a bit too tightly as well as those I am resisting. I find that coming back to intention, practicing ‘letting Go’ and ‘letting be’ and allowing things to be just as they are, brings me the unexpected joys, the comfort, and the fulfillment of being engaged in the process as it unfolds….regardless of hooking that fish!
Happy Birthday Dad…here’s to peace and comfort in your journey🎉!
