Winter Wonderland: A Meditative Dive into the Spirit of Divine Love, By: Ari Bliss

September 5, 2024 by Ari Bliss

Winter Wonderland: A Meditative Dive into the Spirit of Divine Love, By: Ari Bliss

As the snow smoothly covers the roof of the buildings on each block
The sky is currently a clear blue color that is shining slowly as if time has stopped on the clock
The cold air comes across quietly yet synergistically on this early morning February day
Birds fly high in the sky, as few as they may seem, going every which way
Take a deep breath in, and feel the openness of life
Be still if but for a moment, regardless of any challenges or strife
Through hardships strength emerges
Your will prepares you for a journey with bountiful surges
Breathe out the negative, the cold, and the empty emotions
Focus your attention on the progressively tranquil flow of the swelling waves in the oceans
Looking far beyond the translucent water, it appears calm
For now, until next dawn
Every day the waves tell a different story of the tides, either being high or low
The transitions are preeminently natural, like the summer weather turning into wintery snow
You see, the ocean is like life, its’ waves say all
Some days you triumph, other days you fall
And as the winter passes by you will experience the best of both worlds
For this journey is yours alone, so stand strong, unwaveringly uncurled
A step at a time
You will find your sublime
Take in each moment, as the snow is here and fresh
Enjoy its’ vitality, the winter’s flesh
Warm up some green tea and put on some classical music or a movie
Spend time with your loved ones, gallivanting life’s beauty
For you cannot control all things at your disposal
And therefore, you must adapt to the changes, steadily remaining hopeful
So listen to the peace, the calmness, the happiness you contain
And remember to love each day, for you will be satisfied, this is your ultimate gain
