Root to Rise

IMG_5809

Here in the Unites States on this day of reflection, I am reminded of opportunity.  Whenever a nation, city, family or individual is confronted by sheer devastation, be it a massive terrorist attack, an overwhelming storm or an acute crisis, there’s shock, grief and then some still space and then action.  That little bit of space can be and often is the hinge on which everything afterward swings.  When reduced to our very lowest, completely vulnerable and no longer blanketed by safety and security what do we choose?  So many of us choose compassion.  So many of us choose to be patient with ourselves and our circumstances.  So many of us choose to help and rescue and offer aid.  It’s our nature and that’s what we do here.  As individuals in nations and citizens of the world, if we can continue to root ourselves in solidarity and compassion we can rise from any ashes, overcome any struggle and build resilience no matter the circumstance.  Here’s to hoping that when that small space of stillness opens up, we take note and choose to ground ourselves in goodness.
