HEALING WORDS

    Kindness falls like a gentle summer rain, nourishing the ground and bringing the bright sunshine that follows. Forgiveness flows
like the creek, full and fast after the rain. And love is here, in the rocks and trees and blue sky, and in your eyes and in your heart.            In your words, all the qualities of nature speak, all the spiritual qualities of kindness, understanding, encouragement, and commitment. The words you speak, and the conversations that follow, are creating a world between you and your loved ones. This world of talk, this world of words we share, is like another dimension of nature. We can make it sweet and flowing and bright,
or soothing and compassionate like the rain, or harsh and powerful like the thunder and lightning of a storm. Words can clear the air like the sunshine after rain. Or brings floods of hurt feelings, wounds like the broken branches from the howling winds of a summer deluge.
     You have some choice over the words you use, and the feelings and ideas behinds them. You are an artist of life, creating worlds of understanding, when you choose words that come from your heart,
when you speak truthfully, soulfully. When you speak from your deepest Being, you are a force of nature, and the words flow from you to those around you in harmony with the rocks, the creek, the sun, and the summer rain.
