O Breath of Life,
come sweeping
through us,
come cleanse,
renew us.
O Breath of Love,
come breathe
within us,
revive, restore us.
Bessie Porter Head (1920)
If you’re feeling stuck – consider the time of year. The season of Winter is when nature rests and goes underground.
Perhaps this time of darkness is a gift.
A time of preparation for great things to come.
Nature says it’s okay to sit awhile and rest.
Be awake, be aware, but don’t push.
Encouraging words nourish the soul.
Light lifts the spirits.
Warmth brings relaxation.
Let nature take its course.
