HOW TO WALK, TALK, LIVE, AND LOVE: AN ODE TO NATURE

"Walk like a lion, talk like pigeons, live like elephants, and love like an infant child."                                                                                                                  ~ Santosh Kalwar     "Be fearless," the quote begins.Breath and bring out the best of you,It's easy to picture walking like a lion:proudly, with confident grace.I understand loving like an infant childand laughing with joy like a toddler,An elephant? She too loves in a way that's good to follow,quite like the child but more deeply than freely.Remember well; forgive easily;and stick together the women and children do.I'm familiar with pidgin talk but not pigeon talk.I've heard them coo and sort of warble.I've heard they can carry and deliver messages.That's a valuable thing too.There's strength and beauty in all creation.And it's smart for us to look for it,and wise for us to see itin ourselves and all others.When fear is present,take deep breaths,stretch tall,be brave,and be you.Know that you have all that you need.With faith,Charlene
