Privilege

Being out this morning observing the world from the back of a horse at a gentle walk, I was so honoured to be able to witness these wonderful birds fledging. Taking the time, being still, listening to nature all around me. It is so easy to get wrapped up in the fast paced world that we live in that sometimes we forget to stop and listen - it was the cries of the birds that alerted me to something special happening. How often do we miss the most beautiful things by being in a hurry? Being in a rush to get somewhere, do something, achieve the next goal, meet the next deadline means that we often get distracted from what really matters. In the words of John Denver - Eagles and Horses ​

I don't know where the next stage of my life or business are going at the moment, I am observing and taking the time to let it develop organically. The International BodyTalk Association is having its conference in Clearwater Florida this weekend, I am not there in person but attending via Livestream so many new exciting developments coming on-stream - brining the energy of the animals with me on this one to support and guide me. So seeing those birds this morning seemed auspicious - the start of something new potentially ...... 

Lyrics Eagles and Horses from album Flower that Shattered the Stone by John DenverHorses are creatures who worship the earth
They gallop on feet of ivory
Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth
The horses still run they are free
My body is merely the shell of my soul
But the flesh must be given its due
Like a pony that carries its rider back home
Like an old friend that's tried and been true
I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses I'm flying again,
Eagles inhabit the heavenly heigths
They know neither limit nor bound
They're the guardian angels of darkness and light
They see all and hear every sound
My spirit will never be broken or caught
For the soul is a free-flying thing
Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought
To rise up on glorious wings
I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses I'm flying again,
I'm flying again, I'm flying again
My body is merely the shell of my soul
But the flesh must be given its due
Like a pony that carries its master back home
Like an old friend that's tried and been true
My spirit will never be broken or caught
For the soul is a free-flying thing
Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought
To rise up on glorious wings
I had a vision of eagles and horses
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
Going higher and higher and faster and faster
On eagles and horses I'm flying again,
I'm flying again, I'm flying again
