Today I’m thinking about
playing small
and the expression of
such
how we are warned against
and advised to
never
it’s a big money maker, this expression
all the self-help, and the
to boldly go, kinda thinking
Go Be More, to get More, to have
MORE!!!
seems to me it all kind of goes against
the whole, You are enough
of things
suggests rather that
You
clearly
are Not
enough
unless…
Today I am thinking about
playing small
in the garden, in the
sunshine
this being, my
place
to walk quietly, to
watch
to see
to
listen
I’m not feeling very well
off my allergy medication for several days
doctor’s orders
as to get a more accurate test
currently unable to take in much food,
mostly sticking to water
moving slow
as to steady the queasiness
in my head
and even though I know it won’t help much
and my face will start to
swell
and itch
I still spend a good part of the day
outside
I am greatly enamoured, as a matter of fact
in my communications with
nature
at
playing small
after all, standing under a vast bright blue sky
peering up
at the tops of the trees
I do believe, I am
quite
small
never really had the need
to be a
show stopper
a
climb higher
a
go getter
think I’m much more of
a
perfectly
content-er
and there’s nothing
less
about that! ♥
