And then the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk to bloom.Quote by Anais NinREFLECTION:Explore your risk vs. safety.Do you play it safe? Do you take too many risks?What scares you?What would opening to your fears... willingness to take a risk look like?If you were to fully "bloom" what would that look like?
The bird dares to break the shell, then the shell breaks open and the bird can fly openly. This is the simplest principle of success. You dream, you dare and you fly.Quote by Israelmore AyivorREFLECTION:Nature teaches us! This robins shell became too confining. Is there a "too confining shell" that you have outgrown? Do you need to bust out of your shell?What do you dream of doing?What do you want to dare to do?What risk do you want to take to fly?Take a forward action today... chip away at your shell.
FORGIVENESS Take all your sins and shortcomingsEvery last mountain and molehill of your pastAnd give them over to the waves.That's too easy you say.But I tell you there is lightHidden beneath your fearA free spirit waiting to soar with the seagulls. The moment you relinquish your tight gripOn guilt or innocence Receive the blessings of the salty sprayThe benediction of the cormorant.Forgiveness look like the delight in your eyes As you wave goodbye to the shoreline.Poem by Danna Faulds titled FORGIVENESS REFLECTION:Are you able to forgive yourself for past sins and shortcomings?Can you give them over or does that seem too easy?Explore forgiving yourself. Can you wave goodbye to the shoreline of your past and soar with the seagulls?
