Northwest Grandmother is bundled warmly as she walks beneath the evening sky. The heavens are crisp and clear and the night is long. The endless stars are her gateway to vision. Tonight she sees far beyond them, into eternity. Because she has learned to release all expectations she is receptive to the wisdom of the universe. In the past she would touch this deep wisdom for a fleeting moment. But each time it would quickly slip away with the busyness of her days. As she has grown older she has been able to hold on to this understanding longer and longer. This gentle Grandmother helps us know that beyond hate and suffering lies the capacity for unconditional love. She shows us that our ability to dream and create is unlimited. |
