This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of being open to learning from everything and everyone (today and every day).
Comment from Marie: Humans mostly believe they are the most intelligent and aware beings on the planet... but perhaps that is a delusion. If we open our mind, our heart, our intuition to connecting with "all our relations" -- four-legged as well as plants and nature in general -- we may discover a simple wisdom that surpasses that of humans.
InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
October 28, 2024
The focus for today is:
I choose to have an attitude of openness
to learning from animals and nature.
Today's inspiration was written by Suzanne E. Court:
All animals can teach us on a spiritual level, as can any aspect of nature. Sitting on the banks of a river and watching the water flow by teaches us patience and perseverance through modelling the power of letting go and allowing life to flow. Dogs teach us about loyalty, affection and how to have fun with simple things.
Job of the Bible knew these things about three millennia ago when he is reported to have said: “Ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you, or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you.”
As regards animals, to derive great benefit from their company we need do very little other than have an attitude of openness.
