W.O.W. Wednesday...The Tonic of the Wilderness

5/24/2017

“We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” 
― Henry David Thoreau
As I soak in the words of Thoreau, I feel this wilderness inside my heart.  There is an ache to explore and a desire to climb.  There is an unfathomable curiosity that crests on the horizon.  I pause underneath an old Sycamore tree as I allow my heart to synch up to the pulse of Mother Earth.  I feel the sensations of life beneath the soil.  I hear the birds chanting praise.  The sounds of everyday life hum all around, while the unsurveyed landscape inside trembles in anticipation.  

My beautiful friends, we have a wilderness of opportunity living within us.   Each step affirms the directionality of our life.  Nature is there supporting us.  The seasons create a sense of reverence and bounty.  We have within many flavorful seasons.  Seasons of loss.  Seasons of love.  Seasons of grace.  Seasons of change.  Seasons of mystery.  

Gazing into the wilderness of your heart, what season are you currently in?  How are you living in harmony with the landscape of your dreams and desires?  Have you the courage to live more fully into this season?  Thoreau's prose reminds us to return again and again to nature.  It is here that perhaps we simplify the complexities of a tamed mind. 

May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude, 
​Sarah
