Lets Go Nuts Together
I felt my chest expand and tears of awe spring to my eyes. I think I’m feeling such gratitude and appreciation for seeing this imagery and words together. I’m realising how rare it is that we pause and look and listen to the world through the eyes of children – and how much is asked of them, to learn to speak ‘our’ language and communicate ‘our’ way … which may be so narrow compared to the rich and multi-toned, multi-texture experience of their inner world. I guess I’m wanting this world to have deep respect for children, to hear and value their communication … in whatever form it takes. Thank you for sharing this. I’m inspired to feature it as tomorrow’s visual meditation.
Hi Naomi,
I’m so pleased with your reaction, and thankful that you took the time to respond and write this. Yes, do feel free to use this – isn’t this a lovely visual meditation and imagery? – and indeed, we can all take more opportunity to listen … really listen … to children’s interpretation of the world around them and their own attempts to represent it. 🙂 Thank you again, Na’ama
❤️🙏 Thank you Na’ama
Hello again Na’ama. Happy to say I’ve reposted this now. It was such a challenge for me to try to express. I hope it connects more people to value the precious work you do https://yourguidedjournal.com/2017/03/10/to-honour-our-being-beyond-words/
Thanks, again, Naomi. 🙂 Have a lovely rest of the weekend!
