Too Much Talking

Watch this parrot oil painting come to life in about 2 minutes (time lapse)

These days it feels like there is too much talking, not enough listening, and there’s an imbalance in action. Those who oppress and harm others are moving quickly. Those who wish to free and heal others are moving slowly. Lies are racing like white water rapids in a dangerous rushing river. Truth is flowing like molasses.

May the scales soon tip in the other direction, toward patience, empathy, and stillness; toward goodness and light; and let deceit fall away as truth shines for all to see. Stay strong and brave. This season will pass, no matter how long it may seem.
