April 21, 2017, Globe, AZ-
Last weekend,
and this,
I am practicing
radiant acquiescence.
It was told me,
thirty-five years ago,
that accepting “NO”,
from the Universe,
often leads to finding
what one wants.
The ancient tale of Layla and Majnoon,
where he found her,
only when he gave up his search,
is a prime example.
Last Sunday,
I found
the gathering place
where friends were celebrating,
only when I had given up the search.
This evening, I found a place
to lay my head,
only when I let go
of wanting to camp
by the side of the road.
Tomorrow,
I will visit with one new friend,
back in Superior,
then head off,
to make others,
in the farm belt,
an hour east of here.
Radiantly letting go
of the insistent self,
brings boundless rewards.

Very true sentiments, Gary, well-expressed.

It continued, into Saturday evening, as I had given up on finding my friend in Globe, and then spotted him, around the corner!
