The Open Gate

The way opens when you are ready to move.

Not every threshold asks you to rush through it.

Some gates open quietly...after you have stood there long enough to hear your own heart again. After the fear has stopped coursing thru your veins. After the path ahead becomes less about escape, and more about permission.

The Open Gate reminds us that movement doesn't always begin with certainty.

Sometimes it begins with one hand brushing the flowers, one breath taken, one small step toward the light.

This week, notice what is opening for you. You do not have to run. You only have to recognize the invitation.

When I let them back in the barn that day I just opened the barnyard gate and called them. They came running, so I ran to the barn door to shut it behind them once they were inside. Never went out and to shut the pasture gate. By next morning the snow was too deep to even try.

Three weeks later that gate is still open, 10 feet from the trampled-down area.

The girls haven’t even tried to get out. They have to be getting tired of staying in the same small area every day. What they don’t seem to realize is how much the snow has settled. They could easily walk through it now without getting bogged down. And I’m sure not gonna tell them.

The more you know.
