Something Complete and Great
"That is Happiness:
to be dissolved into something complete and great."
- Willa Cather
I recall growing up in Durango, Colorado.
I was surrounded by animals; both domesticated (and often horribly spoiled) ones and wild ones.
For long i lay beside my cat or dogs
my young fingers ever willing to explore the warmth and loving radiance of my Animal Companions...
dissolving "into something complete and great."
In mountain meadows i napped beside my Wolf,
feeling as though he and i were the Warrior Kings of our own Shangri-La...
we were...
Nourished by Life
Living with Sacred Happiness
vowing never to lose it...
only Heighten It.
My Practice of WF has and continues to only Empower that Sacred Happiness
which pivots upon the only quality that matters to an aspirant of Self;
Rising Higher.
Don't give up the Sweat.
Don't refuse the Silence.
namaste,
coach ilg
