Four stones which had fit nicely in the palm of my hand, are gone now. I had already planned on taking them back to Mother Earth as they had recently told me that's where they wanted to go now - one specifically wanted to be in water. When they heard I was going to the zoo a couple of days ago, they asked me to take them along. I said, "Of course."
It's hard letting go of friends. I'm talking about all varieties: Stones, helping spirits, humans. But I have learned that when it's time to part ways, holding tightly does not feel better in the end. Best to go with the flow of life and let it be. Actually, it's a great argument for living in the moment, cuz that's all we've got folks. And in the next moment if our friend is gone, we can be at peace that we had not squandered our time with them.
These particular stones had been with me for some time; they were acquired along my life's journey. But I have long known that I do not possess my friends (of any variety). When they show me it's time to move along, I trust them. These four friends are at the zoo now spreading their magnificent energy in the little stream that runs through that sacred place with its sacred inhabitants. I love you friends. Thank you for the time we spent together.
