“The faster we run, the more determined is the Universe to slow us down. The more embedded our methods of self-distraction, the more agitating the truth-aches calling us back to authenticity. The more eagerly we race to the sky, the more intense the lessons that bring us back to earth. The Universe has no interest in our flight from reality. It wants us right here. Nowhere else… but here.”
– Jeff Brown, Ascending With Both Feet on the Ground
My feet on the ground,
tied up.
My mind running errands,
elsewhere.
Silence at the end of the edge,
tick-tocking.
Life is happening though,
here.
Right here.
Thank you, Ree. 🙂
Yes. Sometimes we are everywhere. 🙂 Thank you for reading, Vinitha. 🙂
That’s amazing to hear, Kristine. 🙂 Thank you
Ooh, love this one. Gave my mind something to chew on . . .
Is that picture clicked by you? Gorgeous shot. I loved the poem. Happens to me all the time, body somewhere and mind somewhere else.
Wow! My mind running errands, elsewhere. Loved the line. Loved the quote.
