The Seven Attributes Of Running With Spirit - Stillness (Part One)



Stillness

~
We are stillness - lent to motion for the
momentary pleasure of
our travels.

`
All things begin from stillness - motion arrives in a
stir of pleasure uncontained. There is no choice
but to express ourselves through the
ecstatic movements of
our steps and stride.

Even in the midst of our run there are hidden still points - almost
clues of our true existence. We find the small moment
that waits between each heartbeat. The subtle
pause - hushed, holy - of the breath.
They appear through distance-  matched by silent
notes of nature played across the earth.

All things return to stillness - motion given and
now returned. A time to pause and listen.

Peace,
Eric
