Whirling dervish
The whirling dervishes are dancers who spin to empty themselves of distracting influences. On this morning, my granddaughter reminded me of the spinning Sufis. She spent more than an hour whirling to her favorite music. She was in a trance of freedom and joy.
Having to make sure everything is right and on time can be a burdensome responsibility for you. Take time each day to spin out of control and be in a good meditative place of your own. This is my flashback of good for today. Suzy Shepard
The aspen tree is a study in resilience. Thousand year old aspen roots survive forest fires and send up new trunks. When traumatic life experiences burn on the surface, remember the aspen. Your deep roots will survive and grow into a life not wasted - a life worth living. You will have flashbacks of good.
