Listening & Allowing

Yesterday I went to visit a nearby aspen grove, and was impressed by its massive presence.  The grove was near the top of Mt. Elden and was presumably the result of a single large root system connecting all of the trees, since that is the way they grow.  I felt drawn to sit among the trees and to enjoy the grove’s huge healing presence, an example of my being present, listening and allowing.  I cannot do that unless I set aside the distractions of day-to-day living, and then focus on the grove.
