Shore to the Ocean

From the Scrying Poetry Tarot, the Two of Cups; from the Tapestry Oracle, Devotion:

Without love, we are birds with broken wings.

~ Morrie Schwartz

          Love, more than just romance, is like a magnet to iron. It cannot help but to reach out to the other, feeling that the other's well-being is intertwined with his or her own. It is what helps us rise again and again, when life presses down on us. The Devotion card shows a strong man traveling rough terrain while caring for something precious. Often we don't realize how our tenderness toward another keeps them tethered to hope for change. As someone once said, "To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world."

The heart can think of no devotion

Greater than being shore to the ocean - 

Holding the curve of one position,

Counting an endless repetition.

~Robert Frost
