The light from the sun spreads slowly,
As if coming up from the surface of the planet.
The luminous air hovers,
Connecting all the different colored wood frame houses in the neighborhood,
And their unseen occupants.
This spreading light comes slowly,
With an inexorable momentum,
With the power of the revolving planet.
In these moments of the Earth's slow and silent revolution,
Find your special place.
Turn inward to your physical self and concentrate energy on your feet that hold you here,
Your legs that offer you mobility,
Your middle and chest that hold vital organs,
Your arms and hands that provide tools,
Your head and face that give you thinking and feeling senses.
Spiral down into your feelings,
Touch them with the magic of awareness,
So they can come alive and move out toward expression,
First for you and then for the universe.
Whatever feeling it is,
Let it come up and come out.
And so your spirit,
Rather than be contained or distracted by emotions,
Is now released by the expression of feelings.
There is now room and a pathway.
Enjoy this openness.
Use it,
Ride it,
So that your spirit is free to express.
May you turn toward the light today,
Whether its source is inside or outside.
Your gift today is to turn.
