Motion

Einstein once said that nothing changes until something moves. And everything changes when we begin to run or walk for long distances. A long distance can mean different things for different people - a mile, two, a marathon or more. It doesn't matter - what matters is too simply give urselves to motion - physicaly, mentally and spiritually. Move without expectation or plan for arrivial - to put one foot in front of the other is to arrive. In motion we find our selves home and a ironic event begins to occur - we find ourselves growing still within. Thoughts clarify, and float within our newly quiet mind. We no longer grasp at thoughts but watch them wander trackless through our mind. Our breath, heartbeat and the rhythm of our steps become a sacred mantra and we ourselves become a holy bridge between the earth and all it offers and the heavens and what they promise. All this...and simply one foot in front of the other.

God bless,
Eric
