I loved this! I came across a ladybird this morning (that's what we call them over here - they're ladybirds, not ladybugs) and it made me smile. I was in charge of wielding the reflector on an outdoor photography shoot on the sunniest October day I can ever remember (it's even HOT!) and I think the ladybird had been attracted by the bright light. 🐞
Love this”becoming unhurried”. If you believe your Soul is eternal, really, what is the hurry? Schedule for the “longest lines”, keep failing, keep learning, keep smiling, let your Soul lead...
Thanks Jules for this profound question. Love your poem. Failure used to scare me but as I age I define it as providing invaluable information so I can move forward with new maps. Fear of failure no longer stops me in my tracks. It has become a welcome companion. It allows me to surprise myself and enjoy whatever I set out to do. Failure is my self correcting G.P. S. Try it on. It works....
I resonate with fear of failure. I'm working hard to have your mindset and I'm making gains! :) What did I fail at today? a question I ask myself so it's not so scary and like you said a welcome companion.
I like your thinking here "Failure is my self correcting G.P.S. Try it on" Thank you Clark.
I’m becoming unhurried
Linger under the stars
there's the big dipper
Gaze at the sunrise
Soak in the view
deep
slow
breath
Choose the longest line
at the grocery—
And who can I smile to?

Oh that is so cute! Ladybirds. I love that and I didn't know. Thank you for sharing this with us, Rebecca.
I love this poem. God’s small creatures don’t seem to have any worries. Trying to become more like the wandering ladybug.
Thank you, Mom. Yes, they seem to get along just fine.
Love ladybugs! This poem is beautiful! Love it!!
me too! I was so happy to spot her in the grass. Thank you Faith and have a wonderful Friday and weekend ahead. xoxo
Beautiful poem and a great question!
Thank you Felicia...I've been writing/thinking a lot about this.

yes, what is the hurry?
I’m becoming
A verb, engaging in life
Experimenting....
