A HUMMINGBIRD SHARING LIGHT

By Lori Carmody

I was doing some gardening and saw this hummingbird in one of the bushes tucked away in her nest.  

How often do I slow down enough to notice what is right in my path but hidden just below the surface?

Marveling at the beauty in this moment of discovery, I asked myself …..

~  Do I need to take a break in my “nest” for a bit and simply savor the beauty surrounding me today?

~  Hummingbirds are physically light.  Do I need to lighten up?  Am I weighted down with doubt, anxiety, fear, agitation? 

~  Hummingbirds move their wings in a figure eight pattern which is a symbol of infinity.  Do I need to pause before moving forward with something?

~  Hummingbirds are adaptable.  Is there something I need to step back from, notice, discern, and then see from a new perspective?

In Native American cultures, hummingbirds are symbolic of good luck, joy and love.  How might I better embrace these gifts today?   Is this, perhaps, an invitation for you as well?

Thanks for reading.
