the birds remind me how miraculous it is to be alive
to fully immerse in the moment
the butterflies remind me to slow down and take it all in
the beetles and ants, to put one foot in front of the other
to be focused on what is before me
the eagle reminds me to zoom out, see the bigger picture
that I am mighty and capable of all that’s ahead
the trees remind me that we are only as strong as our roots,
that expansion and growth is but a testament to the foundation of our base and the soil which we’re planted
waves and rivers remind me that we’re all connected,
to trust in the unfolding
to go with the flow
nature reflecting back to us what’s important, what’s worth holding onto
and nudging us to release
everything that is not
