Rooted.
Allow the silence and stillness you find with me to bring you deeper in touch with your inner life.
Discover what is important to you and your true self.
A great deal of your time is spent on the choppy surface where the ocean waves take you in and out,
Tossing you here and there with the changing currents.
What you and all long for is the peace and calm that are found in the ocean depths,
At the ocean floor.
There life is quiet.
Nature's beauty overwhelms.
Whispers can be heard.
It is possible to live from the depths instead of in the chaos of the choppy surface,
Only every once in a while dropping to the ocean floor exhausted and burned out.
It is possible to deal with the chaos and challenges of life from the quiet deep.
I am not talking about being in a constant meditative state or in some la-la land.
I am talking about being deeply rooted so that you can fly like an eagle.
A paradox,
Right?
You serve no one well and certainly not our country.
If you race around mindlessly,
Doing things just so you can check them off your to-do list,
Only to do it all again the next day on autopilot,
Almost like a robot.
I realize I am speaking of things that may appear impractical for dealing with the issues facing you and our country.
I assure you they are not.
What I am talking about is incredibly practical yet counter-cultural.
Stick with me.
You will see.
Together,
We will take root and fly.
How deeply are you rooted?
