“The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.”
[Lao-Tse]
How beautiful it would be to be a white snow goose I think to myself, romanticizing the pure image of white on white snow. There would not be much else to be.
Christina Baldwin is quoted in Each Day a New Beginning as teaching us that “from early infancy onward we all incorporate into our lives the message we receive concerning our self-worth, or lack of self-worth, and this sense of value is to be found beneath our actions and feelings as a tangled network of self-perception.”
Our beings are not simplistic by design, they are beautiful creations of art in long flowing murals.
May we all be blessed to know and have confidence in the unique treasures of our lives, and the gifts of ourselves.
