During one of my hikes in Joshua Tree National Park this past October, I was walking along asking Mother Earth, the Universe, etc. what to do about some gifts and talents I’m not using because I’m afraid.
I’m standing on top of a mountain and the wind is blowing like crazy. There are clouds zipping by and the sun comes out and then hides behind the clouds again. There’s no one else up there except me and Nelson and Nelson is “over there” somewhere taking photos.
I go still and quiet and ask for help from my guides and allies (like my gloriously wise friend Heather suggests).
As I turn around, I see this Joshua Tree with something at the base.
I get closer, and sure enough…a heart lies right there at the base of the tree.
Surely this is the answer I’m seeking…to move into my heart-space. To trust I am supported at all times, in all places.
