Victor Ivanovich Zaretsky -
Painting, 1988 (Ukrainian)
"All that is gold, does not glitter.
Not all who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost."
J. R. Tolkien
Segments of our culture has trained us to work in reverse. We are told to seek the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, when on the inner, we are glowing with shimmers of hope, love, and trust. We are trained to stay the course even when are hearts are begging to place feet upon our individual path.
Time reflects that old texts and tests are worthy of exploration. Other cultures respect and honor the elders as they maintain credible insights that are blurred by youthful actions. Nature repeatedly demonstrates the importance of healthy root structure. Trees, plants, and humans do well when they are rooted in rich soil.
Be encouraged by new stirrings of the heart. Open the creative senses to what is wanting to be expressed. Listen to that silent voice calling the soul to come home. We obtain all of these remarkable stages when we find the glory in being our remarkable and unique self.
