Marching Forth!

March first, march forward, march your self, soul and heart into the arms of joy in the moment! I invite you to witness such a moment in time (just last week) with my favorite ten year old. March into gladness and click this link: Swing! 

(You may want to make yourself a cup of tea while it downloads, it seems to take a minute or two. Sorry, this is one of the techie issues of Blogger. Nevertheless, it's a 1 min. slide show that's worth the wait!)


I believe in all that has never yet been spoken.
I want to free what waits within me
so that what no one has dared to wish for
 
may for once spring clear
without my contriving.
 
If this is arrogant, God, forgive me,
but this is what I need to say.
May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.
 
Then in these swelling and ebbing currents,
these deepening tides moving out, returning,
I will sing to you as no one ever has,
 
streaming through widening channels
into the open sea.
 
 
~ Rainer Maria Rilke ~
