“Lead the Way”
I know not what I am doing.
This requires more than
self-confidence could ever provide.
This beckons a confidence not of my self.
A confidence ruled by the force
that causes the musk thistle do what it does.
Sprout, grow, bloom, wither, blow

Heart Message
“Allowing one self
to be pulled in
many directions, you are.
From task to task you move,
As confusion, anxiety,
and worry enter the thoughts.
Let go, you must.
Be aware.
Listen to the
heart message.
Know this.
When riddled with questions,
plagued by confusion,
and held hostage by anxiety,
This is not of the heart.
Distractions, these are,
to cover the message
of the heart,
to prevent one
Following the
Path of the heart.
As distractions enter
Consciousness,
Always come back
to the knowing
of this message.
Let go, you must.
Listen to the now,
Listen not to the past.
The path of
the heart will emerge.
While distractions
to Mother Earth purge.”

“You know me so well,
Mirroring life as it is lived.
Sometimes up,
Sometimes down.
And sometimes the journey
is smooth and level.
Oh, beautiful Mother Earth
We make a great team.
Mirroring for one another
Verily, verily, me make a great ONE.” ~2016 Camilla Downs – Author, Lessons from Nature
