PORTABEL, Kirkeristen
They say a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. A medieval proverb about falconry to tell us that it is better to have something than nothing. A concept that has been terribly twisted today to accept the terror and be happy with what little there is.
But what if we just let go of certain power and control and jumped into the bush while the birds sing?
Will you hold my hand?
No one says it will be easy but at least we will still be each other. Together we can hold the flowers and witness their ecstatic energy to open practice and find our balance. We can listen to the murmurs and the pandimonium of the birds.
Maybe it is here we can be grateful, not for what we have but what is with and around. There is no need to capitalize and dominate here. Tending, caring and holding will nourish us and soon we will forget the names of what we once thought we owned.
