Orange is Beautiful by John Heydon

Sometimes you just have to trust, just let go and let the words flow out. As a writer my struggle is always to let what’s inside out. As with most writers, I think, I tend to get in the way, analyzing  , judging, revising and editing.(notice I didn’t say proof reading) until the words are in proper straight jackets and meaning is wrestled to the ground.

Expressing what is happening in thought…through words requires stepping away. I managed to do that today. The result, I hope is a sense of my experience.

Why is it so important to find expression of the tingly tangly out at the edge of my consciousness?

Only in the hope that you understand we all share that space…and that we all have wings

Inspirational Quote of the Day

“Be like the bird
That pausing in her flight
While on boughs too slight
Feels them give way
Beneath her, and yet sings,
Knowing that she hath wings.”

Source : Victor Hugo

Walk across a moonbeam or touch upon a cloud, skip the stepping stones across a cosmic river, dancing cane in hand, and laugh because you have music and cannot help but sing.

There is a place where we all can go with a little faith where all the things we are seeking wait for us.

Finding it is not hard, like looking for a light switch in the dark. You fumble, feeling with out stretched hands, slowly, to avoid tripping on something, or bumping into things. You feel along the wall. You know the light switch is there…somewhere. Ahh… you’ve found it! Flip it…and the light comes on and a whole world is revealed.

Keep fumbling , keep feeling with you heart’s hands. You know there is a place….the switch is somewhere nearby…what glory will you see when the light finally floods your world?

I found a switch like that the other day. When I found it… I thought “oh my god that was so simple, just a single flip.”

I could actually feel the trigger go off in my brain.

Now the first question is to ask: “Why did it take so long?”

Don’t go there.

Say your gratitude instead…then start looking for the next one.
