Play, play, play!

Ran into what is posted below in Heron Dance, a continuing source for contemplative thought and practice.
Sure makes sense over here in my part of the world. How about yours?

I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument while the song I came to sing remains unsung.
- Rabindranath Tagore
- Rabindranath Tagore
We string and unstring our instrument because we don’t believe enough in our song.
Sometimes we’re afraid of our song. The metamorphosis from caterpillar to butterfly demands a lot, including courage, sacrifice and hard work. It requires resourcefulness. It is shy and retreats easily. It requires nurturing.
In return, it offers a deep experience of life.
The starting point, the process from which one discovers one’s song, is a dream. It arises out of our center. Its roots are in the pre-verbal, the half understood, the subconscious. There is a wisdom inside of each of us that often cannot be put into words but, with practice, can be used to guide and shape our lives and our work.
Our song arises out of that which is holy inside of us.
