Glaring...

Today I am humbled by my humanness. A situation in my life today gave me a glaring view of my humanness and it was very bright. And sometimes an apology is the only thing one has to offer the other. I tend to beat myself up over and over again for not being perfect and having caused someone, even if unintentionally harm. I will work on being kind to myself today and once again, pick up forgiveness for myself, and reach for my acceptance, that mistakes are part of the human experience. It hurts my heart today and I know I can not go back and change anything, so today is a somber day of reflection and another chance to accept "all" parts of me, not just the pretty ones.

Baby Goose...

Near my house is a pond that sits to close to the road. As I was headed down the highway this morning, most of a flock of geese had crossed the ramp except one baby goose and its parent. The adult goose was screaming and flapping it's wings because one of the babies had been hit by a car. I had to stop! I got out and picked up the limp body and placed it ever so gently out of harms way and hoped that mom or daddy goose would find some comfort in the rescue. I don't think the little one will make it but at least they can grieve in safety.  I just cried feeling so helpless to do anything else for the wee one. But I have to believe the Universe will provide what the geese need and the rest will remain safe.
