If only I may grow: firmer, simpler,
quieter, warmer. [Dag Hammarskjold]
This describes
pretty well what I want in this Life.
I want to BE less
scattered and worried about what anyone else thinks of me. [and truly, to
realise that NO ONE ELSE thinks about me that much!!!] I want to know who I AM
and BE that, NOT In a way that puts anyone off or ill at ease. I just want to
BE someone who is firm enough NOT to BE bent by the wind.
I want to BE
uncomplicated and clear. I don’t need more shoes than I have feet. I don’t need
to have or save something “just in case” I might NEED it sometime. I guess I
want to live and fully inhabit Right Now.
I want, even when
I am chided or ridiculed for it, to BE quiet. To talk only a tenth as much as I
listen. I want to know the place where Solitude is more than quite enough.
And, though it
seems a bit odd as I move from one warm place to another and then back, I want
to BE warm. But I don’t mean in a warm climate. I mean BEing warm in my heart,
in how I am with myself as well as with others.
I love you, Currie
