Breathe.
And take a moment of silence
to just observe your thoughts.

PAUSE

Now, breathe again,
and visualize a beautiful woven basket
where you place all those thoughts in it,
so you are ready for meditation.

PAUSE

Take a moment,
and envision yourself on a beach
just comfortably sitting 
and taking in the surroundings.

PAUSE

And in the distance,
you see a group of brown pelicans
bobbing up and down in the water
enjoying their time together quietly

PAUSE

A little while later,
the pelicans lift
out of the water
and form a V,
as they circle
around the beach.

There is no squawking or noise.
It’s as if they all just connected
and understood.

You understand and feel
the beauty in that.

PAUSE

As you continue to watch the pelicans,
you notice their patient approach
to catching their food.

They fly a few feet above the water,
Gazing into it,
waiting for the right opportunity.

Then, when the opportunity arises,
they dive.
They scoop up a fish
with their beaks,
and tip back their necks
to swallow it.

They return to patiently flying
and looking for more food together.

PAUSE

Moments later,
the pelicans change directions
and fly out toward the horizon,
the wings open and gliding,
forming a silhouette 
against the sun.

PAUSE

Now, draw in a deep breath,
and let the energy of the pelicans
into you.

Feel their patience
and connectedness to each other. 

PAUSE

Now, take a moment,
and allow yourself 
to create an intention
from the pelican’s energy.

“I will approach life with patience for myself and others.”

PAUSE

Draw in another breath,
and let the intention really into
your heart.

As it settles there,
know that you can access it,
and the essence of the pelican,
at any time.

It is yours always.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
