“SEEDLING SAPLING FLOWERING VINE” a.k.a. “WISHING WELL FOR THE WORLD”:
May we accept the changes that keep us aware and growing
May we accept the changes that keep us both rooted and flowing
May we accept the changes that bring self- acceptance and compassion
May we continue to water ourselves and each other in the garden of life with love
May we have patience throughout each season as we transition from seedling, to sapling, to flowering vine
May we continue to be gentle, kind, and patient to ourselves and understand that what blooms in it’s own time and season, blooms the best.
May all beings be happy and free,
May all beings be happy and free,
May all beings be happy and free.
