We suffer when we cling to any preferred experience - a moment holds a single step and within that instant a thousand worlds are offered. Yet we process one and disregard the others with little thought that the very next step will open again to these worlds. We cling as if our stride holds but one step and the experience found within is permanent. In truth our stride is infinite and what each step brings is temporary in existence. Pain and pleasure both offer gifts to be explored as long as that is what the moment holds. We open ourselves to the world our step delivers, drinking deeply of the wisdom found, and then again another step with a different world. There is no need to drag the past into our present step - our stride offers the grace of letting go along with the magic of beginnings. We simply run - and give ourselves to each world found.
Peace,
Eric
