monday moment of zen

... on the summer solstice ...
"whatever is dreamed on this night, will come to pass."

william shakespeare - acknowledging the magic of this time
a mid-summernight's dream

"with hands in prayer, i face the sun - feeling love and joy in my heart.
i reach out and let the sun fill me with warmth.
i bow before the sun's radiance and place my face to the ground in humble respect.
i must be as the dust of the earth.
i stretch upward towards its light trying to reach the greatest heights and then surrender.
i stand tall and i remember - the sun is within me!"
~ sun salute prayer
