Sunshine, Freedom and Wildflowers


  


"Just living isn't enough," said the butterfly, 
"one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."
Hans Christian Anderson

There is a difference between existing and living, singing and weeping or dancing and stumbling.  A stationary view shifts whether bathed in the illuminating light of love or the lonely shadows of darkness.

The concept of stability comes into question. Foundations shift and pavement cracks.  Whether through the use of earthquakes, hurricanes, or storms, Mother Nature has the ability to alter any scenario.

In spite of all insecurities, we are called to struggle out of our cocoons ... sometimes gracefully, sometimes not.  Shape shifting into the body of a butterfly, we are drawn by the sun, nurtured by the flight towards freedom, and discover peace while resting upon a fragrant wildflower.
