Lessons from Our Blue Heron

He’s the largest bird on our lake, with his slate-gray body, long legs and neck, often standing motionless on a pier, patiently watching lake life.  His liftoff is slow, purposeful, with his neck fully extended, and the slow powerful steady beat of his wings as he soars across the lake to another resting place.  It’s early as I sit on our pier watching a family of geese and the blue heron, lost in morning thoughts.  Slippery thoughts about my journey mixed with gratitude for those I share my days.  In recognizing the fluidness of our thoughts, and focusing on positive feelings we change who we become.  Soar with positive thoughts today.
