THE SWEETNESS OF DOING NOTHING

There is such sweetness

in sitting, doing nothing.

Allowing my internal reality

to unpack itself.

To lay out, on the trading blanket

this and that:

walking on the sand with my sisters

circling Bellrock at sunset,

walking Tyler wearing a fox fur hat.

Love shared,

love received.

In the sweetness

of doing nothing,

the mind chatters

until it winds down

and drops into the heart.

Space opens,

energy moves out

in all directions.

It breathes in,

it breathes out.

The “it” is the LIGHT.

And behind the

breathing in and out ,

is the light running

through the prana tube,

our essence,

the pillar that

connects heaven and earth

through us.

Prana or light energy

flows up from Tera

and down from the heavens,

meeting in our heart

then radiating out!

There is such sweetness

in doing nothing.

Dedicated to Susan G and Rob, searching for that Italian word that means the sweetness of doing nothing. Thank you.
