Ice-skating…minus the skis!
February 13, 2008
Yesterday I went ice-skating….well…minus the skis; that is after being completely oblivious to a thin sheet of ice covering the sidewalk in front of my office. You can guess what happened.Yes, I fell!
It happened so quickly! I didn’t even have the chance to grab on to anything; in seconds, cold, hard concrete was massaging my butt. It hurt!
Author Clarissa Pinkola Estes once said “Refuse to fall down.
If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled
and it will be filled. You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising. But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven-only you. It is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear. The one who says nothing good came of this is not yet listening.”
From my heart, to yours,
Akhenaton
