Clouds
surround us as they pass across the sky. They are a beautiful
part of the natural world.
We all know the malleability of clouds
in our minds. They can take the form of animals, people, and inanimate
objects. Clouds can take whatever form our imagination permits.
Today,
look to the sky and allow your eyes to rest on a cloud that possesses
characteristics that make you think of your child -- perhaps it will
be something that resembles your child, or a toy, animal or character
your child adores.
Look to the cloud and observe the sky.
Is the cloud floating stationary, slowly making its way across the
sky, or moving swiftly? Is it changing form?
No matter,
the cloud will change shape, it will cross and pass out of your view,
it will eventually change form as it turns to rain, snow, or otherwise
dissipates into the atmosphere.
And so it is with all
nature. And so it is with our child. We've already observed
great transformation within our child. There is more to come.
Reflect
on the cloud and open your awareness to the natural changes taking
place with your child.
When you next see you child, imagine their
feet floating a few inches off the ground. Imagine your
child as a cloud.
