LITTLE MESSENGER IN THE ROSEMARY PATCH

The little yellow finch has been coming to visit every morning,

he perches in the rosemary patch outside the window
and flits through branches with the lightness of a feather.

Gracefully he swings on the rosemary twigs
 searching for nectar with agility,

yet keenly alert of his surroundings.

The slightest rustle in the vicinity

 makes him turn and scan, again and again,

such awareness in this tiny little bird.

Watching this, it seems to be a perfect demonstration

 of how awareness can bring the freedom to be yourself.

Freedom through complete presentness.

 For all our relations :

 Intending to direct loving thoughts towards those

 who have made themselves dependent

 on chemically produced substances,

 hoping to strengthen perceived weaknesses.

 We can support them

 to find their way back into vibrant balance

 through energetic strengthening,

 for them to discover their innate power
 to do so themselves!
