Daily Nugget #162
day lily
one day she’s there
the next she’s gone….
damn. i barely noticed her
as i brushed by
distracted.
everything can change in a blink.
life comes and goes
ebbs and flows.
change can sneak up
and
pull out the rug.
wtf.
we are left spinning.
confused.
wondering.
why do we expect sameness?
after life proves time and time again
that change is the ONLY constant.
why do we expect sameness?
when people grow
and
transform
and
are barely recognizable
compared to their ‘old self ‘.
why do we put things. people. everything
in a box
in a compartment
with a label
in a sameness
never to change or be different again?
what the hell.
it’s fun to move around all of your furniture
re-arrange your closet or cupboards
adjust the routine
adjust the auto pilot.
shift the pathways of your day
your brain
how you do things
how you see things.
relax expectations.
relax everything!
relax everything.
ahh. what a thought.
relax judgment.
relax expectation.
relax standards.
relax criticism.
relax.
just freaking relax.
we are all balled up.
sometimes with fear
mostly with fear
fear of the:
judgment. criticism. expectations. standards.
fear of being who we really are.
feeling what we really feel.
fear of the unknown. the path ahead. the leap.
everything passes
eventually
if we allow.
Day Lily.
she uncurls in the morning light
and
shines the day away.
the day wanes.
she closes. shrives & lets go.
not to see another day.
unattached.
fully shining while she is here.
enjoy the moment.
BE in the now.
shine your light completely, today!
tomorrow? what’s that?
