chapter 36

36
If you want to shrink something,
you must first allow it to expand.
If you want to get rid of something,
you must first allow it to flourish.
If you want to take something,
you must first allow it to be given.
This is called the subtle perception
of the way things are.The soft overcomes the hard.
The slow overcomes the fast.
Let your workings remain a mystery.
Just show people the results.

this one hits the spot. and i do so love that flower curl.
Glad it works for Carrie…it’s a mystery to me, but for the curl….
The curly-tip is beautiful! Everyone is different and finds their way differently. The results are important, encouraging, celebratory! Beautiful post!
Okay…I gotta’ go there…the “shrinking, expanding, taking, soft, hard, slow, fast”…words and images…well, you know…
HUGS!!!
@songoftheheart - i think it means let it happen.
@adamswomanback - the places you go.
@promisesunshine - OH, I go to different places than they did in the Dr. Seuss book!
@adamswomanback - now there’s an idea. a dr. seussian book of THAT kind.
