Soften Our Walk

By Ken Stuart

A flower is one of the world's most beautiful ornaments . . . So full of life . . . Sharing its beauty in sunshine and rain . . . It creates with little movement and much growth . . . It allows the sweetness of honey in our world . . . It is also fragile . . . We willingly tiptoe around them to avoid a misstep of damaging consequence . . . The human spirit is much the same, fragile, vulnerable, and beautiful . . . May we soften our walk to preserve the dignity of all . . . The beauty of all . . . Because like the flower, our lives are short in both sunshine and rain . . .

Things Are Not as They Seem

Things are not as they seem . . .

Goodness is quiet

and humble . . .

It works one-on-one,

and face-to-face . . .

It doesn’t boast . . .

It usually is not exciting enough

to make the six o’clock news . . .

But, it is in abundance . . .

Building community,

lending hands,

leading the way . . .

As the actors take center stage,

in their folly,

in their strife,

fighting fear

by trying to create it . . .

We shall remain calm,

and good,

and loving,

regardless . . .

Love?

If love is

the kind sky

and gentle sea . . .

Then, is not the storm

also love?

Discover

Our internal selves,

intangible to others . . .

core components of mind,

emotion and
