In mythology, the goddess Inanna planted a tree in her sacred garden and tended it daily. But then a bird and a snake made it their home along with the goddess Lilith. We can be conscientious and work hard, but we may still find things don't work out when or how we wanted them to. It's hard to keep going when the hits don't seem to ever stop. Yet Rabbit appears with her ability to frequently produce a large number of kits any time of the year. Being on the prey end of the food chain, she knows survival for her species depends on creating lots of bunnies. Rabbit urges us to be creative, having multiple options and plans rather than only one. Focus on the task rather than the result. Things have a way of working out, just not in the shape expected. In the case of Inanna, the tree got cut down and made into a bed and throne for her.
When one's expectations are reduced to zero, one really appreciates everything one does have. ~Stephen Hawking
Remember Inanna from AT? She had been invited to Italy to show her artwork 6-7 years ago. I wonder what ever became of that? Internet acquaintances are a bit like kits, here and gone and we are left wondering.
ReplyDeleteSo many acquaintances have come and gone... A bit like the AT forum itself.
