For over five decades, I have disliked wind. It unsettled me. Took my breath away. Everything appeared dishevelled and messy. Now, having made and hung prayer flags for nearly a month, my attitudes are changing. 'Blessings on the Wind' are truly that.
I feel as if I am experiencing wind and the movement of air for the first time. There is an enjoyment of the simple pleasures of letting air flow between my fingers instead of walking with a closed hand. Pausing and savouring the smells of food cooking, carried on a breeze to me. Watching a host of dandelions dancing in a gentle breeze with gay abandon. Clouds streaking breathless across the sky.
As I send blessings out into the world on the wind, so too, am I receiving them.
May you be richly blessed today.
