DANNA FAULDS

Allow

There is no controlling life.
Try corralling a lightening bolt,
containing a tornado.  Dam a 
stream and it will create a new
channel.  Resist, and the tide
will sweep you off your feet.
Allow, and grace will carry 
you to higher ground.  The only
safety lies in letting it all in-
the wild and the weak; fear,
fantasies, failures and success.
When loss rips off the doors of
the heart, or sadness veils your
vision with despair, practice
becomes simply bearing the truth.
In the choice to let go of your 
known way of being, the whole
world is revealed to your new eyes.
