"Every decision I make that harms myself
creates new leaks in this human vessel."
Susan Austin-Crompton
As the rain pours down for yet another day, I coax light bearing thoughts to spread through my body, mind and spirit. I imagine I am standing on the beach, feeling warm sand beneath my feet. I visualize sunshine beaming down upon me, strengthening perspectives.
Leonard Cohen, song writer/musician uses a wonderful lyric "There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in." So when unavoidable darkness begins to seep in, I avoid being caught in the negativity, and immediately seek the lesson the light attempts to shine upon.
If I were a piece of pottery, I would show numerous crevices and crannies. Imperfect repair simply contributes to the beauty of the unique piece of self. I am not a damaged vessel, but an example of a well worn piece of art.
