Mystical Morning Call

Early this morning as the sun was adding gold to the sky my youngest brother Zane called, "The geese are here, the field is white, if you want to take photos now is the time."
I jumped out of bed threw a jacket on over my PJs, brushed my teeth, but not my hair, and drove to the fields.

As we drove to the ranch I felt that surge I have come to know as my fuel. My fuel is what makes me a better me, makes me feel alive and happy, it heals my wounds, it restores my faith, it connects me to God's love, the greater knowing, the center of life itself… that which is good.

I felt it, stopped right there and then letting it soak through me,
absorbed my surroundings, took it in gulps, thanking the high heavens for such beauty, for such a life, for my family and for knowing the gift that it is.
Leaning on that moment, with humble gratitude.

I love those moments, that come with the day, no reason though not always received.
How they affect each of us differently. Some see a field, some see a harvest, some see work, some see stress, and some see paradise.
I see home land.
The base of who I am.

Not matter where I am I will always be home because home is with me.
I could say many things inspire me, such as the brocante… but what fuels me? Something beyond anything I can tag and tame, something that stirs without knowing when or why, a mystical moment that comes up and says, "Here I am I am yours".
Life is simply a gift to accept, so when it speaks intimately to the center of that vast unknown part of myself I believe I must pause to honor.
What fuels your soul?
