MEDITATION
BUBBLING UP
From Within
I
“Delight was
always present
in my connection
to the natural world.”
always associate delight with bubbles, for it
seems to be a state that comes up from within,
often as unexpected mirth. It makes me think of
babies whose smiles and gurgles cause an almost
magical apparition to take place. It is as if pure
happiness shines forth from their tiny bodies. How
blessed we feel when we are the receivers of such
joy.
Dividing the word into syllables gives us: de light.
‘De’ means ‘of’ in French. So we might better
think of delight meaning ‘producer of light’. That
explains babies and us.
