Monday Chaos Dragon
When in the midst of chaos it may seem that order may never return. One thing after another seems to come at us from every side.
We want to throw up our hands, walk away, and hide in the shadow of a willow tree and forget about anything except the wind blowing the leaves with the gentle hand of a mother rocking a cradle.
We may call out for help and none comes. It may seem that there are no answers. But if we take a moment to be still there comes a message from the universe. We will not hear that message if we do not still ourselves and allow it to happen.
Today, the moon is full and even it is hiding out from the tribulations of the world as it is eclipsed. It is important sometimes to let our own reflection of life to be eclipsed by something bigger than us. When we recognize that whether everything is going wrong or everything goes right, this is but shifting waters of cosmic energy and when we are still and in the center of the Tao all is fleeting while all is constant.
The greatest moment of Zen is to realize that it is what it is and we always do the best that we can. The universe does not judge us only the dragon in our mind churns the chaos.
Today I choose to ride the dragon rather than having the dragon ride me.
