Dancing with the Mind

It’s just a natural part of human life–sidestepping the chitter chatter worry-wart wondering future-past tripping mind.  If I allow it to dance, then the heart can lead.  Whether I get this job, will my dog be alive in the morning, when will it be the time to help him go, will it ever be cool again, is this a stroke or just a pulled muscle??

And the heart hears a different tune: I am remembering who I am.  This is not the truth of me.  My life is filled with loving kindness.  This moment is infinite love.  I am safe.  Safe.  Safe.  I love you I love you I love you I love you.  Please remove this thought.  I am in the river and my feet are icy cold refreshed, now back to the heat of the stones.  Sun.  Shade.

With my dance card listing certain steps for me today, I take time to sit on the side lines, allow the wallpaper to hide me.  I sit there giggling with my Best Friend as She sneaks me sweet tidbits of silliness and serenity.
