Perfect

I remember reading a poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox when I was younger; it was called "Whatever Is, Is Best." And one of my teachers, the marvelous Shri of Bliss Yoga Shala, often reminds her students, "Everything is perfect, or nothing is perfect." I love this saying, because it makes me pause, reflect, redirect when I'm feeling discouraged or disappointed or confused. If we can believe either half of this equation, then why not choose to believe everything is indeed perfect? There is a Divine plan at work, one larger than we can see or imagine. When we let go and flow with what is, we are swept into a current that will take us to places we are meant to be, where we can learn what we are meant to learn, grow as we're meant to grow. And how perfect that is.

So, here's wishing you a lovely and perfect weekend.
