Falling Into The World

The day comes with its invitations, a door that can be unlocked by a thought, a window whose light beckons the soul out of its dark retreat and, along a passageway, the sound of familiar voices. And here you are, cramped for so long in your space that the shape of who you are has become fixed and seized solid in its way. Deep in its contemplative soil it sleeps rootbound in its own pot. If you listen, the world is rousing you as you crawl out of your dream and sit on the side of your life, dangling your feet over the abyss that surrounds you and the shrinking island of yourself. Hear what is being said and let the world welcome you with all of its imperfections, uncertainties and risk. Fall into its arms, recklessly and full of doubt, towards love.
