Up to Higher Ground

Another space is here for me. 

It seems that it comes even when I love where I am. 

Even when I have become quite comfy with the steps that have become known to me. 

The sun is showing me the way again this time so I will go with it as it is also going up to a higher ground. 

Being at the end of this space is also being near the beginning of a new one so I will go forward with that in my rhythm. 

This time, what the sun showed me came as the peak of summer rolled into view and I sat with the one who is my compass star. 

We were sitting in our comfy places and asking what we could do next. 

Comfort is the thing we had created in our spaces to be able to bring a pause. 

The sun had been shining high above just moments before and now it was time to talk.

This came as we developed a deeper way to take our discussion up a notch. 

Love can do that, and it did for us. 

Do you believe in love that can last for a lifetime? 

I do. In fact, what you may also see here is a twinkle of what can last even longer than that. 

The light is catching our eyes, and we are in the middle of life. 

Not too sparkly, not too pristine. Life was moving fast this day, so a picture was taken quickly before the moment was gone. 

This was something I learned to do decades ago so it continues now. 

Capture the light and shine and keep going. 

I go with the flow and rhythm of going up to a higher ground.

There is a song that comes to me often when I go with the flow and rhythm of going up to a higher ground. 

You Take Me Up by the Thompson Twins starts with a toe tapping beat and quickly adds in more as the lyrics bring in a story. 

It is one that weaves through hard work, friends and love.  

There is a part of this song that brings both a solo then the harmony of a group together. 

Let’s think about that for a moment. 

Can life be like that? 

Being on your own in hard work can make some people go around and around. 

Planning, scheduling, being in all the places on your own. 

It is also where a person is able to know what to do next, how to get things completed and the joy of finding their resilience. 

Is this when higher ground is found?

Is this when higher ground is found? 

Looking for someone to join you on the daily grind of life can be another piece to think about going solo. 

Or to join someone for an adventure once in a while.

When is there a time to bring in others to help go up to higher ground? 

For me, deciding when to plan on my own and when to bring on someone is part of what this song brings to me each time I turn up the volume and dance. 

Hard work is what I have relied on for another lifetime and what I have been able to count on. 

It’s up to me and the hours I put in.

Yet this doesn’t really create harmony when seeking a way to take others up to a higher ground. 

Oh yeah. 

That’s what this can also be all about. Not only putting myself in or taking myself out. 

There was a childhood song before and now it is time to go into this next version of the space. 

My heart is no longer at odds with hard work as the rhythm of life as it is also about friends. 

In fact, the glimmer of life is all about this best friend as we go about life with love.

I will go back to this again and again.

Having friends who will have your back, side and all your pieces. 

That is the work of this realm. 

Coming up to higher ground where the two steps of this dance feel joyful, with next answers and alongside all who want to be here.

Let the sun show you what is possible as you go to your higher ground.
