Storms of spring threaten -
Turtle pulls back into shell -
Into reflection.
Turtle pulls back into shell -
Into reflection.

Perseverance is a good trait. To have what it takes to go the needed distance in the manner needed to create success.
However, in western society we often do not honor the legitimate need to enter seclusion. We praise those who doggedly go forward to meet external goals. We certainly do not recognize that this time spent on inner work can also be a moving forward.
Ruminating. Considering. Percolating. To take the time needed to reflect can also be a form of perseverance. Honor the need to introspect. Certainly we have commitments to keep to family, to work and commitments in other arenas of our busy lives. Find the place of balance. Our souls call us to The Great Work.
