Heavy as my heart may be, that doesn't mean I can't enjoy a little holiday spirit, as many others have. I have followed the other equines toward what appears to be a giveaway tree as there was last year around this time. I move slowly and quietly, following them all. I stand silently as I watch the Earth Turtle start to 'hand out' gifts to those that have already arrived. I see the joy that is spread from one to the other as they receive presents from who knows. A smile spreads on my face, undiscouraged by anything dreary going on presently in my life. I see Africa standing there and am not sure that I can bring myself to stand next to her. Instead, I join Gaucho and his children, watching as they receive presents. I chuckle as I watch them rejoice and look toward the Earth Turtle myself, wondering if I will get a gift as well. I wait patiently, watching him move slowly from one happy horse to another. Perhaps he will gift me with the benefit of peace. Peace that I may understand the things that have happened in my life so far and the things that will come. A gift of comfort and acceptance so that I won't fight my future but roll with it as waves roll on the beach. I don't want to be struggling every day, in and out, to make sense of it all and try to fix it up the way I want. No, nothing good in life comes easy, but working so hard and it doesn't happen.... Maybe that's a sign as well? Perhaps the Earth Turtle will help soothe these worries. That is more than any physical gift that I could ask for. "talk" |
