Birds on the Water

i was just sitting outside.......... there is increased wave action this morning....... waves crashing closer to the beach while beyond the ocean appears calm ..................................................................................................................................................... i observed a flock of birds sitting on the surface of the water.......... i watched in amazement as they appeared to be in quiet oneness with the water.......... as the water raised up and fell ...so did they............ even in the midst of large waves they simply remained in the flow of the waters action........... always appearing quiet and calm as one with the water.......... not jumping up.....or flying away......no......they simply stayed on the surface riding the waves as though they were one with them ..................................................................................................................................................................... i imagined moving thru this life in just that way............ with such calm and quiet......... with a knowing that all is well.......... with a knowing of oneness with all life.......... all life appearing as love.......... to bring me unique experiences of love............ ..................................................................................................................................................................... who knows how love will appear in the next moment?
