The other day standing in my backyard there was a visiting goshawk, looking sleek, strong and stately. I was captivated by the vision and I felt his presence. Maria, my wife, suggested that I meditate on the hawk and see if there was some sort of message for me and since I realized I had been impacted, I did During my meditation I realized that I admired the hawk but certainly did not consider myself as “sleek, strong and stately”.I became very aware that the low self-concept I had when I was young was incorrect and based on the way my family saw me, but that I still had vestiges of that view. Through that vision I was being urged to view myself as the strong, independent, remarkable person I had become, a tall order but worth listening to.
