Squirrel Says:
Lighten your load.
Find some time to play.
Gather up knowledge.
Prepare for the future.
Oh, and have some FUN.
**************************
Squirrel medicine has been following me at every corner. The best part is that the squirrels who are finding me are all holding the biggest NUTS in their mouth.
They run along the fences clutching their nut.
They run up trees clutching their nut.
They pause in the middle of the windy road to look at me, giggle, and run away.
**************************
I have been working through heavy emotions, feeling unsettled and yet the deep urge to get SHIT DONE.
Taking this squirrel medicine seriously. Gathering up my nuts (talents, dreams, desires, and the nuts of my scrambled thoughts) in preparation for this autumn.
All we have is NOW.
And I plan to laugh like a wild skittish squirrel along the way.
**************************
May you find some joy as you gather up what you need, leaving what is heavy behind.
May you find some moments to play and be joyful.
Love,
Maura
