Part 1
Just as a river is refreshed -- each moment -- by the small creeks and streams that pour their waters into it, so are we meant to be renewed by the passage of Real Life as it pours into us, revealing all that it does... within us. Of course, this ever-green relationship assumes one thing: that we remain open enough -- each moment -- to receive this flow of vital impressions, and agree to share in their ageless expression.
Part 2
As long as we meet moments when, for whatever reason, we feel “old” -- resisting the same old feelings, in the same old way -- what other possibilities exist for us... other than to remain identified with a weary sense of self that feels older each time we see our lives through its eyes.
