The Seagull Speaks: May 21, 2010

Jonathan Livingston Seagull

“They are saying in the Flock that if you are not the Son of the Great Gull Himself”, Fletcher told Jonathan one morning after Advanced Speed Practice, “then you are a thousand years ahead of your time.”
Jonathan sighed. The price of being misunderstood he thought. They call you devil or they call you god. “What do you think, Fletch? Are we ahead of our time?”
A long silence, “Well, this kind of flying has always been here to be learned by anyone who wanted to discover it; that’s got nothing to do with time. We’re ahead of the fashion, maybe. Ahead of the way that most gulls fly.”“That’s something,” Jonathan said, rolling to glide inverted for a while. “That’s not half as bad as being ahead of our time”.

Surrender

Surrender,

Let go.

There is no Future,
There is no Past,
There is only Now.

Allow Yourself to just Be,
Be Here,
Be Present,
Be Now.

Melt into the Moment,
Allow Miracles to Happen.

Walk the Path,
Which leads from Your Heart.

Fly up to the Clouds,
Towards Life,
Towards Love,
Towards Peace,
Towards Beauty.

Go to the Mountain,
And Jump off,
Only then will You Know,
You can Fly.
