Lessons From The Ocean Birds

Today I was walking on the beach
here in beautiful San Diego. I
find when I walk on the beach
I am always very inspired by
the ocean birds. I find they
teach me many lessons, when I
am in touch with my inner awareness.

I am inspired by them in many ways.

Today I was fascinated by this bird
sitting in the ocean water of the bay.
He was just sitting there floating on
the water, letting the flow of the ocean
carry him. I could feel his peacefulness,
as if he was in a state of meditation.

This bird reminded me of the importance
of stillness and letting the Universal flow
carry me. To take time and stop 'doing'
and practice 'being'.

As I continued my walk along the
glorious ocean, a flock of birds
flying over me reminded me
of another very important lesson.
The lesson of togetherness.

Birds fly in flocks so that they can
travel further with less effort.
When a bird flies alone, it can
only go so far. When a flock
flies together, they increase their
overall energy together and
can travel hundreds of miles
with minimal effort.

When I was younger my independence
was always very important to me.
I was always of the firm belief that
I did not need anyone. I could
be alone and be completely happy
if it came down to it. I would
actually keep friends, family, romantic
partners at a distance, to make
sure to maintain my individuality.

Over the past several years that has
changed. We ALL need each other.
We are all stronger together. We
can all accomplish so much more
and achieve greater happiness
when we work together and support
each other.

Embrace your fellow human beings,
love your brothers and sisters. If
someone offers a helping hand, accept
it with gratitude. If you are struggling
in any area of your life, ask for help.
We are all here to work together, support
and love one another unconditionally.

Pay attention to nature and the animals.
They are here to teach us many lessons.
They are teaching us all the time, we
just need to pay attention.
