We carry our houses on our backs ~
houses of time and experience
shaped within our homes and hearts.
We move slowly through this world,
stepping only one minute at a time ~
thinking we should move faster.
We wish to be secure within ourselves,
knowing that to walk in the world should be safe ~
thinking that it is not.
We can be secure within ourselves,
becoming aware of how to find our own security ~
knowing that safety can be found.
“Take a walk with a turtle.
And behold the world in pause.”
~ Bruce Feller
