Dive deeply into the miracle of life and let the tips of your wings be burnt by the flame, let your feet be lacerated by the thorns, let your heart be stirred by human emotion, and let your soul be lifted beyond the earth.
Pir Vilayat Inayat KhanCall of the Dervish
when we find ourselves pausing in our lives,
for any reason,
rembering to dive in (let go & freefall as a good friend of mine says) is liberating.
we are released from the confines of our minds (those internal voices that deride us for past misses, percieved failures & beat us up in self-doubt) are silenced.
it might be for just a moment but it is time enough to stretch our wings & fly.
What a great way to start the day!
