'always going, never arriving.' br i've thought about this one br for a while. br and i think there's another step! br br the bare limbed tree in winter, br frozen branches, no sign br of life. br br and yet beneath the surface, br life is forming, having been lost, br begins again! br br perfect stillness. br no need for going, br or arriving ... you're br already there! br br all that is life br is present. br what you seek for br you already are! br br take off your shoes, br lay down your pack, br and embrace each breath. br br the tides come in br and go out.
