Friendly Friday at Flying Geese

Today's thoughts settle on "Balance".

The Universe,
like bellows,
is always emptying,
always full.
The more it yields,
the more it holds.
Tao-te Ching

Here is a simple exercise:

Visualization for Balance

Close your eyes for a moment. Feel and hear your own breath. Now you are centered within yourself. Imagine yourself quilting at a lovely, rhythmic pace, not too fast or slow, but smoothly, responding to all parts of your quilting, yet mindful of the whole. Speak in your own way to your intention, to allow all parts of the quilt to give their perfect gift to the whole. View each step you take in quilting with compassion for yourself and your quilt. This will lead you to understanding why you created your quilt.
