Filter out what you don’t need
Ahhhhh… good morning.
The sand was still wet from yesterday’s rain,
and the ocean looked more like a calm lake…
soft, fluffy clouds drifting in from the west.
A mix of ruddy turnstones, laughing gulls, and a solo herring gull
were busy with breakfast and getting squeaky clean.
As the sun came up, the clouds hovered over the ocean like a cozy blanket, soaking up the early morning glow.
After sunrise, I came across a solo spoonbill.
She paused for a moment and said,
“Trust your senses…
feel your way forward.
My bill filters out what I don’t need—
a gentle reminder to let go of what doesn’t serve you,
and keep what supports your heart’s desires.”
Wishing you a beautiful day, friends
