I love this, Allysha! I have heard this parable before, many times, it is one of my favorites. There are always two sides. They are the polarities, the opposites, and they are constantly tugging and pushing at each other. But there is this middle ground called the liminal, the vesica piscis, the sweet spot. In this case the strawberry!

I appreciate your words, “your footprints show the way for those who wish to follow.” I am at a point where I MUST go my own way. Painful at times, but that is where the fullness of life is for me. And there are times I pretend there are no tigers, I fall into the story of lack, compliance, etc. Yet the strawberry is there always waiting for my return.

Beautifully written and so very true. While our world burns down, and 2025 is a Tower year in my opinion, we can still savor the wonderful things in life. And we really should. After all, that is why we are here!

The spaces in between are where the magic lives.
