One Step Ahead

The tree that is beside the running water

 is fresher and gives more fruit.

 Theresa of Avila

This week, 

I seemed to be always trying to stay one step ahead 

of the dust and difficulties

Today.....it is time to refresh

 I will admire the gentility of flowers until I learn their ways

                              I will gain wisdom from the sea

And find directions in to tomorrow

by watching the way of the clouds today.

I will fill my heart with the song every bird

 and once more

I will see life as it was

and as it is

and as it should be

and that's poetiquejustis

 

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. 

Not as the world gives do I give to you. 

Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

John 14:27
