Look! Look! Look!

Look! Look! Look!

The other day I was walking around the city lake down the hill. A young mother was there with her small son. As I walked watched them walking hand in hand. He barely came to her knees. I watched as she let go of his hand and POOF! off he went, full speed ahead. His wobbly legs making his body dance like a weeble. He ran as fast as he could towards the water. 
The mother, realizing she had miscalculated went running after him. But instead of yelling at him, she was giggling with him. She did not chase after. She ran with. Oh yes, she got to him before his momentum would probably have carried him into the water, but such a grand sight it was. Children always run to the water. Always run to wonder, awe, laughter and delight. 
May today, the call of Life be so strong within you, you too run "to the water" run giggling with only one thought - Look! Look! Look! To listen to the heart's permission. And Life shall run with you, giggling with you, and will, with gentle hands, make sure you stay in the moment, safe, abundant in joy, and laugh with you.
