29、l life. in this sacred space, they are connected to physical, mental, and spiritual realms all at once and can find the balance that they need to reenter the and continue successfully in the world. polar bears dont enter a deep state of hibernation like other bears, but instead fluidly cross between

30、 realms on the physical plane as well the spiritual. their reflective, translucent fur makes them difficult to see as they move across the frozen ice, blending into terrain covered with snow, making them seem like they are shimmering between dimensions. they move as easily in water as on land, agile

31、 and able in both worlds. they can remind us that we are one with our environment, inseparable from it. they teach us that while we can take time apart to connect with spirit, we can also carry that awareness with us as we move through life, making the spiritual indistinguishable from the material.

34、ion from one phase to another, we find ourselves saying good-bye to an old friend, the identity that we formed in order to move through that particular time. sometimes we form these identities in relationships or jobs, and when we shift those areas of our life become unsettled. usually, if we take t

35、he time to look into the changing surface of things, we will find that a shift is taking place within us. for example, we may go through one whole chapter of our lives creating a protective shell around ourselves because we need it in order to heal from some early trauma. one day, though, we may fin

39、n often when we talk about fun, or doing things just for fun, we talk about it in a dismissive way as if fun isnt important. we tend to value hard work and seriousness, and we forget to pay our respects to the equally important, light side of silliness and laughter. this is ironic because we all kno

40、w the feeling of euphoria that follows a good burst of laughter, and how it leaves us less stressed, more openhearted, and more ready to reach out to people. we are far more likely to walk down the street smiling and open after weve had a good laugh, and this tends to catch on, inspiring smiles from

41、 the people we pass who then positively influence everyone they encounter. witnessing this kind of chain reaction makes you think that having fun might be one of our most powerful tools for changing the world. laughter is good medicine, and we all have this medicine available to us whenever we recal

42、l a funny story or act in a silly way. we magnify the effects of this medicine when we share it with the people in our lives. if we are lucky, they will have something funny to share with us as well, and the life-loving sound of laughter will continue to roll out of our mouths and into the world. of

43、 course, it is also important to allow ourselves to be serious and to honor that side of ourselves so that we stay balanced. after a great deal of merriment, it can actually be a pleasure to settle down and focus on work, or take some time for introspection until our next round of fun begins.208. bu

44、d and blossom and beyondthe life cycle flowers and leaves both begin their lives as organisms so tiny we cannot see them with the naked eye. with time, they become visible, curled in upon themselves, colorful buds slowly softening and releasing. with the proper warmth and moisture, they unfold littl

45、e by little, revealing with each degree of opening a new color, shape, or dimension. sometimes buds open seemingly all at once, unfolding the full majesty of their potential, of what looks to the human eye like courage, openness, and generosity. as days go by, the bloom slowly moves through more sta

46、ges, revealing still more colors, shapes, and dimensions of its essence. it falls apart, strewing its petals on the ground, or it wilts, or it closes back in on itself. when we can appreciate the full beauty of each stage of the cycle of life, from bud to blossom to disintegration, we feel more at h

47、ome with our own earthly process. we can be inspired not to hold back the fullness of what we have to offer, knowing that our time to give of ourselves in this way will come to pass. at the same time, we can honor others, and the little processes that go on within the larger process of living our li

48、ves. each stage we go through has its time of fulfillment and recession, as do all living things. every moment of every stage has its own particular beauty, and we can appreciate that, even as most of us tend to love the spectacular moment of full blossoming most of all. when we feel the wisdom cont

49、ained in the budding, blossoming, and dissolution of a simple flower, we begin to feel it everywhere, in each moment that comes and goes, in each sunrise and sunset, in every hello and goodbye, as the very essence of the pulsating ebb and flow of existence.209. the friend we want to beevaluating our

50、 relationships there comes a time in all our lives when we may need to evaluate our relationships, making sure that they are having a positive effect on us, rather than dragging us down. without realizing it, we may be spending precious time and energy engaging in friendships that let us down, rathe

51、r than cultivating ones that support and nourish us along our path. life, with its many twists, turns, and challenges, is difficult enough without us entertaining people in our inner circle who drain our energy. we can do so much more in this world when we are surrounded by people who understand wha

52、t were trying to do and who positively support our efforts to walk our path. we can begin this evaluation process by simply noticing how we feel in the context of each one of our close relationships. we may begin to see that an old friend is still carrying negative attitudes or ideas that we ourselv

53、es need to let go of in order to move forward. or we may find that we have a long-term relationship with someone who has a habit of letting us down, or not showing up for us when we need support. there are many ways to go about changing the status quo in situations like this, having a heart to heart

54、 with our friend showing through example. this process isnt so much about abandoning old friends as it is about shifting our relationships so that they support us on our journey rather than holding us back. an important part of this process is looking at ourselves and noticing what kind of friend we

55、 are to the people in our lives. we might find that as we adjust our own approach to a relationship, challenging ourselves to be more supportive and positive, our friends make adjustments as well and the whole world benefits.210. what we cant seethe unseen world just because we cant see something do

56、esnt mean it doesnt exist, although this is a common way in which people deny the existence of spirit guides, angels, and other unseen helpers in our lives. however, anyone who has encountered such beings can attest to the fact that they do, indeed, exist, just as our breath exists, keeping us alive

57、, even though we cant see it. the wind exists, too, but we only know this because we feel it on our skin and hear it moving the leaves on the trees. all around us and within us are things we cant see, and yet we know they are just as real as the grass beneath our feet. what we see and dont see may j

58、ust be a matter of perspective, like the ladybug who sees the leaf on which she sits, but not the tree the leaf grows on, or the person sitting beneath it. and the person beneath the tree may or may not see the ladybug, depending on where he focuses his attention. still, all of these things, whether

59、 seen or not seen by the person or the ladybug, exist in reality. some people are more gifted at accessing that which we cannot see, but given an open and willing heart, anyone can tune into the invisible realm and begin to find their way. human beings have always done this, and it is only recently that we have fallen into distrusting the existence of what we cant see. if
