TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE

"Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience."

           ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you find yourself feeling impatient today - for any reason, in any circumstance - think of trees growing, rocks eroding, and canyons forming.

How do you typically react when you're stuck behind a car traveling under the speed limit or in a long check-out line when the cashier calls for the manager? Instead of tensing your muscles - if that's what you do - bring to mind a century plant blooming.

Perhaps you're impatiently frustrated with yourself. If you feel behind your own expectations, take a deep breath and remember: we are a part of Mother Nature too.

For greater peace, health and happiness, let's gently and kindly get in her flow.

With loving compassion,
Charlene
