Children of Mother Nature

I am always amazed that I get signs/messages from the least likely sources.  I watched a couple of movies recently and was fascinated with the following.

SUPER - the beginning and the end had meaning for me.  In the beginning he prays to God and his wife is a recovering junkie and alcoholic. The ending has an interesting twist. Destiny at is best!

What's Your Number:

It's what I want.
You don't know what you want, Ally. You're so busy trying to be what everyone else wants you to be, you don't know who you are.

That was true until I met you.
Well, I'm sure that if we had selpt together you'd be long gone by now, because that's who you are, Colin and that's who you'll always be.
And I do know who I am. I'm someone who's not gonna let another undeserving asshole into my heart! or my vagina!

Thank you for teaching me that being in love means being yourself.

I'm happiest when I'm being myself, and I'm myself when I'm with you.

Water For Elephants:

Just come with me.
What?
You think there's nothing out there for you but there is. You just can't see it.
Jacob, you don't undertsand I can't. He'll find me.
Marlena, there's a better kind of life that's meant for you.
Whether that life is with me or not, or whether you love me or not, it doesn't matter. But its gotta be now.

Love is Simple

Love is accepting. Not expecting.

Trees and People
by Madisyn Taylor

We can be more like trees opening our crown to the Universe and rooting down deep with our feet into mother earth.


A tree that is beginning to grow sends roots down into Mother Earth even as it reaches and opens to the sky above, seeking nourishment from the sun and the moisture in the air and in the rain that falls. In the same way, we can envision ourselves as treelike beings, imagining that we have roots reaching down into the earth, energetic strands that keep us connected. At the same time, the crowns of our heads lift and open to receive nourishment from above. Just like a tree, we seek the sunshine and water we need to survive and thrive. Both trees and people serve as conduits for the intermingling of the opposite and complementary elements of air, water, sun, and earth. 


We also share creative ways of growing, regardless of the challenges we come up against in our environments. Trees will even grow through rock, shattering it, in their effort to reach the air and light they need to survive. We are similarly resilient, with a built-in propensity for growth and the conditions that promote it. We find creative ways around the obstacles we confront as we move along our paths, moving toward the light that feeds us, just as trees grow around other trees and rocks as they make their way upward. 

Contemplating the ways in which trees and people mirror one another brings us into alignment with the reality that we are part of Mother Nature. Our children, and the trees and their children, will live together on the earth as long as we all survive, sharing the elements and serving together to forward nature’s plan. Walking in a forest can be a meditation, the interweaving lives of all living creatures and the planet on which we all take root and reach for the sky.
