Rhythm of Life...it's beat pulls us forward!

Life is uncharted territory.

It reveals its story one moment at a time.

Leo Buscalgia

There is a rhythm of life,

We move and work and grow

seasons change

emotions rise and fall

and

all the while

time moves forward and moves us with it.

We are conceived,

birthed from a watery womb,

nurtured,

sprout,

push forward,

learn,

laugh,

love if we are lucky.

The sun rises from behind the clouds each morning

inviting the day to begin

and

so it does

morning, noon, evening

and

dusk arrives

saying goodbye to the light

and

inviting the darkness to slow things down a bit

The moon teases us with occasional glimmers

fingernail like sometimes

and

full mooning us at times.

We arise,

we move forward,

eat and work and go and do,

we sit,

wipe away the dust from the days work

and

lie our weary head down as the sun closes her eyes.

It all continues

the slow steady beat of life,

birth to grave and all the stuff in between.

Life,

slow steady beat,

inviting us to dance and laugh and sing and learn,

we move forward,

our bodies age,

and

before we know it.

Our newborn faces have grown wrinkled and old,

our new sprouts of hair that grew into our thick mane

begins to thin,

baldness begins to show,

bones age,

eyes get bad,

knees hurt,

teeth space out.

and

the beat goes on

steady as it may

pulling life forward

a steady beating rhythm and rhyme

and

time turns

and

life

...

life happens.

May our rhythm allow all of us

to slow down

listen

hear the beat

and

enjoy the music

as our life's move forward into the future.

Happy Friday evening

hugs and blessings
