Let the old feathers go!
The pre sunrise started off quiet with a layer of cozy clouds accompanied by a sweet lavender color show. Just like life the energy switched to frenetic and a bit chaotic. The water was rolling in passed the poles that it normally doesn’t reach unless we have a king tide.
A ring billed gull came right up for a photo op while a herring gull stayed on a pole with a single feather sticking out.
The herring gull said, “Do you ever have that feeling you know you need to pull out an old feature to make room for the new but you can’t quite reach it? It nags and draws your attention? Well, I totally understand that feeling.”
“I’m here to remind you stay on it, give yourself a good shake, make little changes until you can make the shift. It’s worth it, and wow does it feel better making room for the new. You’ll thank yourself for letting go.”
Sunrise was cut short when I saw a loon being thrashed around by the ocean waves like a rag doll. Wrapped in my sweatshirt, I put the loon in the river where she could rest. They get exhausted from their commute and with a churning ocean she wasn’t getting any rest. She brings the message. She said when she got to the calm river, “I’m a messenger that the touch waters will end soon and you find yourself floating in tranquility. Hang in there!”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
