SHACK 3015 SMALL AND POTENT

Winter Bush 

A small beautiful teacher,

 a little bush growing growing in the garden, almost unnoticed in a closet as it were with other bushes some three feet away from it with a tree as the center piece of the scene.

So still, yet so vibrant and I felt 'I don't know if you have thoughts or are self aware?

You grow by natures Will and just that simple.

I grow by Natures Will but my ego overrides it with thought, noisy clumsy thought, as if I know better than nature. The greedy grasping ego, more and more wanting, hoarding, acquisitions and yet not really satisfied.

Oh yes! consider the lilies in the field, they toil not neither do they spin, for Spirit knows of their need, after all Nature through Spirit designed and created them.

Great Spirit, Great Source of Life, I need your help, I need to let go and let you guide me and run my life and to shed this over thinking envious judgemental ego.

This relentless ego; its demands constant and incessant doing, noise and chatter and nosiness. Come on do something.

There are downtimes of low energy and mood that reveal dark hidden corners of the room and ego and I resist them because they are uncomfortable and I am ashamed that they are in my psyche.

The the bush seems to come to mind, sit still, be still, be empty, ah let that be.

That little bush in the garden doesn't have to do anything to get love and applause, doesn't need a mortgage, it is intrinsically itself.

Its still beauty and magic coming from its slender branches somehow mesmerises me and as I gaze at its sheer beauty, it seems to honour me by drawing me into its energy filed and sharing its essence and for a brief moment or two I feel at one and joined.
