Becoming still

(PHOTO: LAURENCE FREEMAN, IRELAND)

How do we love ourselves? We love ourselves by becoming still. Stillness is a great discipline; it is the great discovery of meditation. Stillness becomes the dynamic of transcendence. The more still we are, the more we transcend our limitations. Now, stillness does not mean stopping. It is not static. We fully experience stillness when we feel how it is part of the whole process of growth in nature. There is a wondrous relationship between stillness and growth.
