Peter, Paul and Mary sang a song, Hurry Down Sundown, with a line in it….
~
“Weave me tomorrow, out of today”
~

Perhaps, the idea of “weaving” might be a bit like “knitting” this scarf… starting by choosing some beautiful yarn and an appealing pattern. And then “knitting”….each stitch developing out of a previous stitch and then leading to another stitch…knitting each stitch carefully and realizing that all of those carefully formed stitches (and dropped stitches, too) are becoming a “section” and that each section is contributing to the next section and the next… leading to the beauty and integrity of the whole…. “weaving well….”
~
And…if any of those days feel like “beat-up, sundown days”…to get through those days as steadily, courageously and skillfully as possible…continuing, as much as we can, with… “weaving well…..”
~

“weaving well”
the awareness, understanding and acceptance
that whatever we are choosing to do “today”
is significantly affecting and influencing…
….being “woven” into….
the quality of our “tomorrows”
And so….
trying, as much as possible and as often as possible…
to keep this awareness in mind
~
may we weave well….

I really love Peter, Paul and Mary, but I don’t think I recall this song. I’m going to check it out. The thought that even the ‘dropped stitches’ are part of weaving our tomorrows. Such a lovely contemplation!

Thank you, Debra. Yes, isn’t it something that those “dropped stitches” are what goes on to create the depth of the flowing ripples in that scarf…an apt metaphor….ahhh…life.

Hi Joss, I’m so happy to see that you’re enjoying Ecuador and back to sharing your warmth, insights, playfulness and ideas in your blog…. I’m so happy for you!
…here’s a link to Beauty and Grace, in case you’re interested. (I think that the pdf “booklet” in the beginning of the post is easier to read and flows more gracefully.) https://pocketperspectives.com/other/beauty-and-grace-within-the-flow-of-comings-and-goings-in-our-lives/
I’m sending you the warmest of wishes and wishing you so much happiness in your “new life!”
