She follows an ancient mysticism,
unencumbered by the expectations of man.
Seeking solitude in her daily life yet not rejecting connections
and love from others.

She balances her time and focuses on play,
be it in the ethers or well-grounded on the earth.

She is childlike and wise,
joyful and yet open to sadness
when it comes in response to her life experiences.

She is not taken off guard, as she is fully atuned
with the energies impacting her — deeply connected to nature
and the freedom it models.

She sees total acceptance of life and life circumstances
as necessities for gaining more understanding and completing her assignment for growth and becoming,
thus she enacts her wisdom.

Ever moving forward toward an experience not yet embodied,
a story not yet written, a dance not yet danced.

Always gratefully moving yet quietly, joyfully poised in the moment with total acceptance of her impermanence.
